Summary	The objective of this proposed research by the Naval Postgraduate School Principal Investigator is to provide research panel support for the Milcord LLC development of a semantic and structured wiki service that will serve the information and knowledge management needs of the Complex Operations community responsible for mission training, planning, and operations. The HYKNOCO Project by Milcord LLC, of which this proposal is a part, seeks to research, design, and develop a hybrid answers engines prototype. This proposal responds to the BAA objectives for an 'effects and open source reliability scoring capability, integrating fact and opinion-based knowledge sources.' The overall project goal is to build our application using open source semantic wiki tools (e.g. Semanic Media Wiki) for knowledge representation, open source structured wiki tools (e.g. TikiWiki) for structured content representation, and our knowledge Management (CKM) framework for fact discovery and management. We propose to use open source knowledge and data sources (e.g. doctrine manuals, encyclopedia knowledge, historical databases and current news) to build a sufficiently rich application that will attract community participation in order to grow the machine-extracted knowledge with user participation.
