Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Techniques, a system and an article of manufacture for designing integrated enterprise solutions. A method includes aggregating multiple work-products pertaining to solutions submitted in response to one or more previous solution requests, segmenting the multiple work-products into multiple segments based on content category, annotating each of the multiple segments with a tag based on one or more semantic associations with the content of each of the segments, adding each of the segments and each of the tags into a database, performing a search in the database to identify a set of one or more of the segments with at least one tag that corresponds to content of a current solution request, and ranking each of the segments in the set based on a degree of semantic matching with one or more parts of the current solution request.
