In existing literature, Semantic Web portals (SWPs) are sometimes known as semantic portals or semantically enhanced portals. It is the next generation Web portal which publishes contents and information readable both by machines and humans. A SWP has all the generic functionalities of a Web portal but is developed using semantic Web technologies. However, it has several enhanced capabilities such as semantics- based search, browse, navigation, automation processes, extraction, and integration of information (Lausen, Stollberg, Hernandez, Ding, Han & Fensel, 2004; Perry & Stiles, 2004). To date the only available resources on SWPs are isolated published Web resources and research or working papers. There is a need to pool these resources together in a coherent way so as to provide the readers a comprehensive idea of what SWPs are, and how they could be built, and these will be supported by some appropriate examples. Additionally, this article will provide useful Web links for more extensive as well as intensive reading on the subject.

Can a development manager with experience in other Web technologies easily become a successful portal development manager? Is there anything specific that a portal development manager must know about the technology? Are the best practices in Web development applicable to portlet development? Portal development and other kinds of Web development typically include informational and functional components. The informational components are documents and content (such as hyperlinks, plain textual information, and graphics) that are placed in portlets and that can be equipped with search capabilities. These components may have capabilities for information processing, such as content management, publishing, and document management. The functional components provide access to data processing through functional portlets. Often, the two types of components reside on the same page. A typical but simplistic example would be a portlet that provides access to accounts receivable, with another portlet providing help or training on the subject of receivables. The two portlets are related and reside on the same page.

Nowadays, the WWW is playing a vital role in the business world. Most enterprises are becoming digital. Content management systems provide an effective method to improve the development of web applications and make the maintainer’s job easier. The purpose of this work is to study the benefits that the use of web technologies can suppose for a SME company when they are applied to integrate their work techniques and procedures. The authors have also tried to use it to provide their customers with several services, and to make easier the company expansion process. The framework developed includes a security system for the access to the contents based on the RBAC model. The use of the INOVA framework has provided a benefit as much for INOVA itself, as for its customers, by including in a centralized way document resources and toolkits that can be accessed remotely.

With the advent of the web technologies, portals are providing a wide range of comprehensive support for information processing and management focusing on content management with specific foundation for knowledge development. Knowledge management portals are emerging as web tools that can assist facilitate knowledge management in the aspect of learning, social awareness, policy implementation, and empowering the common citizen of the community. Knowledge management portals can be a rigid platform for providing integrated access to relevant content and resources in one location, for sharing and distributing information, and for bringing the community people together for knowledge interchange. This chapter focuses on the aspects of knowledge management portals through a horizontal literature review and put forwards a few cases that are being utilized in various aspects of the society for the knowledge attainment of the general public of the society.

To meet the challenges of today’s Internet economy and be competitive in a global market, enterprises are constantly adapting their business processes and adjusting their information systems. In this article, the authors analyze the applicability and benefits of using semantic technologies in contemporary information systems. By using an illustrative case study of deployment of Semantic Web technologies in Human Resources sector at the Mihajlo Pupin Institute, this paper shows how the latest semantic technologies could be used with existing Enterprise Information Systems and Enterprise Content Management systems to ensure meaningful search and retrieval of expertise for in-house users as well as for integration in the European research space and beyond.

<p>The recent rapid advancements in web technologies has led to an increase in the development of new devices, applications and methods of interaction that are continually evolving. However, the rate of these technological advancements outpaces those of design. This has also given rise to a new way of understanding how to work and collaborate online. Interestingly, in addition to this understanding came a corresponding increase in the frequency of online collaborations. A good example of this is a content management system. This system gives the ability for multiple users to collaborate online with the goal to maintain and create content for a website. However, during the time of writing this thesis, most content management systems come with limited functionality and not as user-friendly as they could be. As most of these systems are used by non tech-savvy users.   This thesis sets to understand social aspects of online collaboration, new design methodology, and to design and develop a user-friendly interface for both front-end and back-end admin area to leverage the online collaboration within an educational setting. Using both iterative and experimental approaches, I have tried and experimented with a few content management systems(CMS) in order to find their strengths and weaknesses. These CMS being Joomla, Drupal, SilverStripe and Wordpress. Then continued to develop a set of prototypes in which the research findings were applied to aid in the usability of both the front-end admin area and the back-end website.</p>

The goal of this chapter is to show how Semantic Web technologies can help build integrative enterprise knowledge portals. Three main areas are identified: content management and metadata, global searching, and the integration of external content and applications. For these three areas the state-of-the-art as well as current research results are discussed. In particular, a metadata-based information retrieval and a context-based port let integration approach are presented. These have been implemented in a research prototype which is introduced in the Internet session at the end of the chapter.
