Please help me to figure out the appropriate technology to develop these functionalities.

Hello ragava, welcome to the Ranch!

A quick administrative matter. While we don't mind you cross posting to other sites, we do ask that you please Be Forthright When Cross Posting To Other Sites. It saves someone here spending time answering your questions when it's already been answered elsewhere.

A good Java forum software is JForum2, a good wiki is JSPWiki. Rather that write everything from scratch, you might be able to incorporate parts or all of these projects.

Fair warning: JForum2 doesn't use JSP, it uses FreeMarker, which -while not hard to pick up- takes a somewhat different approach to page templates, and -not being JSP- doesn't support tag libraries. Just mentioning it in case that was important.
