Hello
IKS team
Here is the latest IKS early adopter proposal (idea) -
I am posting it here for input on how best to ensure a valuable
experience for this early adopter company. After a short discussion I
will get back to them with improvements/instructions on how to proceed
with the validation.
The issue to address is how applicable is the IKS current components
(state of maturity) to this proposal, and what are the missing
features/functionalities that must come from the early adopter to
realise this use case.
The context is the one of a Human Resource Department of a big
company or any recruitment company. The basic goal is to provide
them with an open source document management system able to deal in
in intelligent way with non structured CV, i.e. CVs which comes in
Microsoft Word, pdf, Open Office etc. Each time a new CV arrives it
is inserted in the document base. Behind the scene this is not just
adding a document but passing it to a (possibly remote) Standbol
server which enhance it with structured information. This might
represent:
1) experiences of the candidate
2) skills of the candidate
3) Education level
4) reference data (name, address etc.)
5) contact data
Some of these data might be slightly more structured than just named
entities, but definitely in the representation power of rdf. Some of
them could be even more semantically enriched, by providing external
information on companies, places, specific technologies etc.
As a result of this intelligent population, personnel at the HR dep.
would be able to formulate queries such as (just an exemplification):
- All CV of people living in Paris older then 27 years
- All CV of people with skills in SQL server and Java
- All people wich worked in an high tech company since november 2011
up to now
....
From a technical point of view the most interesting challenge
consists in integrating the set of Stanbol enhancer, with the
semantic web services provided atwww.linguagrid.org. In principle it
should not be a different integration than what has already been
made with OpenCalais WS and Zemanta WS. However there are at lelast
two major challenges:
1) Multilinguality (French and Italian)
2) The fact that we are not dealing with "standard" named entity
expressions.
From the point of view of the adopted CV we could go either for
Nuxeo or Alfresco, or even a third CMS, depending on two factors:
- The adaptability of the specific task of handling CVs;
- The level of support of the supporting community;
- The acceptance of the CMS for our current prospects of this
kind of application
