The term has been used to name a series of conferences in 2001-2002.It is also the title for a part of the Information Society Technologies thematic priority in the European Union's Sixth Framework Programme.

Among knowledge technologies are ontologies, topic maps, blogs, groupware, document management, expertise locators, latent semantic analysis, semantic networks, social networking engines, and wikis.
