The ability to *represent knowledge about the world* and to *draw logical inferences* is one of the central components of intelligent behavior, as a consequence, reasoning components of some form are at the heart of many artificial intelligence systems.

The KWARC research group conducts research in knowledge representation and reasoning techniques with a view towards applications in knowledge management. 
We extend techniques from [formal methods](http://kwarc.info/semantics.html#fm) so that they can be used in settings where formalization is either infeasible or too costly. 
We concentrate on developing techniques for marking up the [structural semantics](http://kwarc.info/semantics.html#ssem) in technical documents. 
This level of markup allows for offering interesting [knowledge management services](http://kwarc.info/projects/) without forcing the author to formalize the document contents.
