Terminology extraction and knowledge management

The reform of National Research Council (CNR) has introduced a new typology for management of research planning activities, which are now operating transversely as opposed to their being organized by single institutes. The project which is now underway, is the result of a public/private partnership and hypothesises the use of term clustering for the organizational analysis and functional reunification of the research policies of the Council. Experts in computer science, in documentation and in terminology, working in synergy, have begun to produce the first significant results, which have already taken concrete form in the creation of the C.N.R.’s document management system, and in the activation of an Integrated System for the management of research policy (SIGLA).
