Impact metrics have been selected from online analytics tools (i.e. website visits, unique visitors, page views, page views per visit, average visit duration, bounce rate and percentage of new visits) as well as EU assessment guidelines, feedback from the third EU review meeting and Information Systems research (i.e. technology impact, business impact, research impact, educational impact, impact on CMS community, sustainability of project results and on going activities beyond 2012, benefits of semantic-enhanced CMS). Data used for this impact evaluation was taken from online access to websites relevant to IKS and the IKS Impact Assessment Survey 2012 conducted at the end of 2012. Results indicate that IKS and its related projects have generated almost 360 000 page views over the course of the last six months in 2012. This together with the graduation of Apache Stanbol from its incubator status in 2012 can be interpreted as a remarkable impact of the project. Moreover, results of the IKS Impact Assessment Survey 2012 indicate that the combination of semantic technologies and CMS are able to provide several benefits such that semantic-enhanced CMS are recommended to a high degree. Additionally, technological impact, business impact and educational impact of IKS results are rated at a notable degree, too. All in all, it can be therefore concluded that IKS was a successful EU project.enimpact assessmentempirical studycontent management systemCMSevaluationIKSinteractive knowledge stackdeliverableEUwork report
