Taking Enterprise Search to the Next Level.

Enterprise search is vital for today's enterprises. The on-going growth of information in enterprises demands new solutions for finding relevant information in the information space. The personalization of search results is one promising approach in solving this challenge. Additionally, ontologies stoke expectations of easing the information integration process for federated search results by their formal and declarative nature. In this poster we present our novel approach of an ontology-based personalized enterprise search. We introduce an ontology-based federation layer for bridging the heterogeneity of the different knowledge sources in an enterprise.
