The Center for Knowledge Technology (CKT) was founded in January 2004 to bring together researchers from a number of different areas. We've drawn together research staff from both the sciences and the humanities to look at the issues surrounding the various technologies, people and organizations employ to help manage knowledge resources.

We focus especially on how to contextualize knowledge to fit the needs of specific users at specific times performing specific tasks. We feel that managing the repurposing of knowledge is a key challenge. We synthesize results from hypermedia, information retrieval, terminology, and eLearning to move towards a more flexible and personalizable knowledge environment.

The CKT currently consists of over 20 researchers, with several more to be added over the next 6-9 months. The CKT manages a number of projects funded from government, industry, and academia.
