How to Leverage SharePoint 2013 to Organize, Label, Navigate, and Search Your...J. Kevin Parker, CIP
At the end of this presentation, you should be able to articulate why good information architecture (IA) makes SharePoint better; identify the four systems of IA components; leverage SharePoint features for improved information management; and build dynamic information management solutions in SharePoint without code.
Key Success Factors for Enterprise Content ManagementIntlock Ltd.
SharePoint has always had a big emphasis on Content Management. This focus has been become stronger version by version. We've had more and more options to organize and classify content through sites, lists, libraries and folders, as well as managed metadata and other properties. These tools help build a SharePoint Information Architecture and are the foundation for improving document search within SharePoint. But as that architecture gets more complex, users can get overwhelmed by the amount of content, and can find themselves easily with a tons of siloed content and, at the same time, with lots of content that cannot be found at all. In these scenarios, Search can be a good option to help getting better findability, but sometimes it’s not enough. In this webinar, we’ll discuss some real-world Content Management use cases and demonstrate how content analytics can help to improve in these scenarios.

Semantic search marketing introduction agency enablementMartha van Berkel
Why is semantic search marketing important today? This brief overview answers what is semantic search, why is it important to act now, the visual outcomes of adopting it, and how you can get started.
Enterprise Search is still considered as a one-time IT Project in most cases, although it should rather be a Business Process, with well-defined lifecycle, metrics and analytics. Measuring and controlling success is very challenging – in most cases, it has to be a string collaboration between internal and external experts. In this session, I’m introducing several roles of this process as well as useful metrics and best practices. Attendees will get a practical plan for quality management of their Enterprise Search solution as the key takeaway.

Exploring the New Search in SharePoint 2013 - What can you do now?Benjamin Niaulin
No one will argue, one of the major changes brought to SharePoint 2013 lies around Search. With the new Continuous Crawl, the new architecture and the many changes to the existing and new Web Parts, your architecture will need to be re-worked. This session is for those with experience in SharePoint 2010 that want to see how we can exploit the new features and Web Parts to build our own new Search Center. This session will cover:
What is Continuous Crawl?
Using Analytics to better the user experience with search
Changes and new Web Parts for Search (refinement, search results, content search, etc.)
Result Types and Rules
Display Templates
And more…
The release of the new SharePoint 2013 with this advanced Search will greatly influence the way you architect your SharePoint. This session gives you the opportunity to see what can be done with Search so you don’t have to say “I wish I knew that before”.
The Enterprise Content Management features in SharePoint have steadily improved with each new release of the platform. In this session, we will explore the top 10 new ECM features that have been added to SharePoint 2013, with an emphasis on "new". The session will include demos that showcase real-world examples of how each feature can be used to enhance the overall user experience when working with email, collaborative documents as well as official records.
Navigate, search and link SharePoint content by use of semantic technologies based on Semantic SP.
Semantic technologies build the basis for smart content management systems. Functionalities of such technologies range from automatic tagging / text mining to taxonomy / ontology management. From a user perspective, improved search, contextualisation of information, e.g. automatic content recommendation, and means for a better understanding of interlinked information are key for professional information management.
SharePoint is a frequently used carrier-system of enterprise content which offers some basic functionalities for semantic information management out-of-the-box. In this webinar, you will see how these features are usually used, e.g. SharePoint’s Term Store, and how those components can be extended by a set of additional functionalities provided by Semantic SP.
We demonstrate and discuss the benefit of use cases based on the following components of the Semantic SP product family:
PowerTagging for SharePoint: Automatic tagging and semantic indexing of documents by use of text mining based on enterprise vocabularies. Semantic search based on SharePoint’s standard search component.
Semantic Knowledge Base for SharePoint: See how to publish and navigate enterprise vocabularies, complex semantic networks and/or ontologies within a SharePoint server.
Taxonomy Creator for SharePoint: See how to create and maintain very large and complex taxonomies by use of PoolParty Thesaurus Server, to import into SP Term Store or to enable PowerTagging for SharePoint.
In this session we explore the different elements that you need to oversee when you are planning a Intranet for your company. We will discuss the different intranet approaches we can follow based on they way you want to engage with your end users. Learn the difference between communication portal and collaboration team site in order to establish an Intranet framework able to scale business needs.
“A survey of corporate CIOs and general counsels found that, typically, 69% of the data most organizations keep can – and should – be deleted.”
Compliance, Governance and Oversight Counsel (CGOC) Summit
So what happens to the 69%? Most likely it will get migrated with no rhyme or reason. Just because it seems easier. And the organization is still left with mismanaged, useless information. That’s only one migration scenario. Migrations can be fraught with delays, budget overruns, and overall frustration. Register for this practical and informative webinar on March 25th, sponsored by Portal Solutions and Concept Searching and learn how you can eliminate migration challenges and reach the pinnacle of success.
What you will take away:
• Learn from Portal Solutions, an industry recognized SharePoint firm, the best practices and processes to approach migration
• Understand the key challenges that need to be overcome before migration
• Obtain buy-in and build the business case on why migration adds value and does not just move content from one place to another
• Take away a clear vision of the steps involved during migration and the phases to be accomplished
• Hear about Intelligent Migration technologies using conceptClassifier for SharePoint
• See how the technology is a key component in a migration solution
• Find the ROI of using one set of technologies to facilitate the migration process, and deploy metadata enabled solutions for search, content management, data protection, records management, and any application that uses metadata.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

4. Our Key Elements to Search Success
Our approach to tagging
and organizing our data
Taxonomy
Adjusting settings to surface
the right content as if by magic
Search Settings
Bad data clutters search,
and it gets worse from there
Retention Policies
SharePoint Search is powerful
Small efforts make big impacts
Display Templates
6. Taxonomy Definition
• Give me a word. Any word.
• Two Greek words:
• taxis – arrangement
• nomia – method
7. Taxonomy Example
Han Solo
“Han is a monotypic genus of
agnostid trilobite, whose sole
member is Han solo.”
Domain
Kingdom
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species
9. Content Type - Hierarchy
Item
Folder Document
Report Page
Web Part
Page
Article
Page
10. Folders and
Taxonomy?
• “Folders are the new F-word”
• Reasons to avoid them
• Limiting
• Maintenance
• Nesting
• Reasons to use them
• Permissions
• Technical Limits
• Performance
• Same logic applies to Sites,
Libraries, etc.
12. Search Settings
• Search is a separate application
from SharePoint
• It allows you to index & search:
• SharePoint
• Team sites
• My Sites
• File Share
• Other web pages / sites
13. Promoted Search Results
• Certain results show up as the first results
• Match queries for keywords
• Exact matches
• Start / End (Action Terms)
• Dictionary (Term Store)
• Common in Result Source
• Use or Clicks
• Advanced
• Regex / Contains
• Manage Query Rules -> Result Source
* Usually Local SharePoint Results
14. Duplicate
Trimming
We ended up turning it off pretty much
everywhere
We tried using it with the default settings
figuring that Microsoft knew best and we
needed to make our content more unique
By default, this is set very aggressive
15. Crawled & Managed Properties
• The indexer will automatically pick up
metadata from your items and files
• These become crawled properties
• A managed property needs to be
configured to enable querying
• #ProTip: Site Columns automatically
get mapped to managed properties
16. Bad data clutters search, and it
only gets worse from there
Retention Policies
18. Retention Policies
Everything on our site is considered a
courtesy copy
Enabled at Site Content Types, or on
List/Library directly
The broader you can set it the better
#ProTip: Go big or go home
20. SPFx /Display Templates
• For me, Search was the defining feature for
SharePoint 2013 and they nailed it
• The new Highlighted Content SPFx web part
for Modern sites
• Complete control? You don’t need to be a
SharePoint dev any longer. Just create a
custom SPFx web part using Vanilla JS, React
or whatever custom framework you like
21. Key Pieces to
Display Templates
In the master page gallery, under Display Templates
HTML file is automatically compiled to JS file
Two types of templates: Control & Item
ManagedPropertyMapping in header is used to define what
properties should be included
#ProTip: Remember that the Master Page Gallery typically has full
publishing enabled so you will need to both Check-In and Publish
your files to make them available
#ProTip: The F12 developer tools is a great way to inspect the ctx
object and see what is available
Dictionary.com: a classification into ordered categories
A way to group things together
How do you pick the right size buckets for your content?
We created a “WECC Document” and then specialized versions of it as well
How Gmail labels changed the game. You can turn them off on a library. Do you ever customize the Folder content type and add metadata to it? What about Document Sets?
We wanted to surface documents, pages, everything really – but also needed to specify narrow queries
