SMW+ was an open-source software bundle composed of the wiki application MediaWiki along with a number of its extensions, that was developed by the German software company Ontoprise GmbH from 2007 to 2012. In 2012, Ontoprise GmbH filed for bankruptcy[1] and went out of business. DIQA-Projektmanagement GmbH, a start-up founded by former Ontoprise employees,[2] now offers support for the software in SMW+, though under the name "DataWiki."
Details
SMW+'s extensions include, most notably, Semantic MediaWiki and the Halo Extension Archived 2010-12-23 at the Wayback Machine. Cumulatively, SMW+ functions as a semantic wiki and is also meant to serve as an enterprise wiki for use within companies, for applications such as knowledge management and project management.
The SMW+ platform was available in a number of formats including a Windows installer, Linux installer, and VMware image.
SMW+ emerged from Project Halo, a research project meant to provide a platform for collaborative knowledge engineering for domain experts in biology, chemistry, and physics at the first stage.
