    Google has become the embodiment of a search engine. But information professionals are aware that full text search engines like Google reveal evident deficiencies and are often not the best solution for efficient information search in technical information portals, intranets and enterprise content management systems. Pull text search engines are glued to the exact wording of a search phrase. On the one hand, they don't find information with different wording but same content because they don't recognize alternative denominations, phrasing or foreign-language translations to be synonym to the original wording. On the other hand, search results are not precise because full text search engines don't make a difference between homonymic but semantically different words. The semantic search engine Con-Weaver has been developed by the Fraunhofer Integrated Publication and Information Institute (Fraunhofer IPSI) at Darmstadt to address this problem. Con Weaver search solutions use a semantic network as search index instead of a full text index. Unlike most other ontology-based software products Con Weaver generates this semantic network in an automated information extraction process.
