This extra facility to find THE people with the right competencies is unique for LORE KM tool.

LORE posses an Automatic Feedback Layer powered by linguistic techniques and language technologies that enable the knowledge base to be automatically updated from different sources. The AFL maintains linguistic profiles of knowledge objects like people, skills and documents, performing comparisons between new information and existing knowledge.
