Using Semantic Analysis for Content Alignment and Gap Analysis

In the LMS or CMS environment, content management frequently translates into single-purpose allocation of content resources, with cataloging and meta tagging being a haphazard affair. This results in potential duplication of content and significant time loss associated with asset retrieval for incorporation into new curricula. Because content is created with the notion that all contributors have knowledge of the underlying taxonomies or common vernacular that information is based upon, it is difficult for organizations to survey their content universe for existing objects that can be incorporated into emerging workflows or to assess relationships between content across disciplines.
