If you are new to SSKE, this section will give you an overview on the main functions that this platform offers and how to use them.

Searching for content

There are multiple ways in which you can look up for content on this wiki. An important aspect that you should hold in mind is that the wiki content is semantically annotated, which means that meaning of the page content is held as part of a larger structure (the ontology) that contains the concepts related to knowledge sharing in the field of Service Science and the relations between them. Thus, a wiki page may belong to one (or more) category and may relate to other pages through various relations. Pages can also have assigned attributes that show relevant information about the content in a structured way. Attributes and relations are called properties and, along with categories, allow for intelligent retrieval of information.

The main entry point for your search is the Faceted Search, which you can access from the Quicklinks section, or by directly typing your keywords in the search box found in the upper right corner of the page and pressing the Search button. The Faceted Search grants you the possibility of further filtering the results of the search based on categories or properties to which the page can relate by choosing these facets from the lefthand side.

Another way of retrieving content is through the Query Interface. This interface allows you to define and build your own query based on categories and properties from the ontology, along with having the retrieved information displayed in various forms such as tabular, alphabetized view, CSV export.
