DeepaMehta is a "networked semantic desktop" that replaces the traditional computer desktop. DeepaMehta rids the user from dealing with applications, files and directories. Instead, the DeepaMehta user arranges information of any kind and origin into supportive topic maps. Topics may be e.g. projects, emails, webpages, notes, articles, contacts, or meetings. Users define their own topic types. Old-fashioned applications, windows and files are no longer in the sight of the user, but the meaningful relationships between real world topics. The DeepaMehta desktop is never obscured by other windows. The DeepaMehta desktop serves as a visual cache of the users actual work context.

In DeepaMehta topic maps are not just graphics. Topics are living. That's why the DeepaMehta desktop can act as e.g. mail client, shared calendar, shared addressbook, and web browser. Software developers can use the DeepaMehta architecture to build customized applications.

DeepaMehta is a collaborative environment. The entirety of topics and associations -- the corporate memory -- may comprise millions of entries and is accessible by thousands of workgroups.
