A very important subject was found in the field of corporate knowledge management.
The Internet represents an important external information source.
Because of the variety of document formats and information services, an open and extendable knowledge system is required.
The Gatherer performs the task of visiting servers and gathering information from various sources as well as pre-processing the document data.
The Indexer's task is to allow the Knowledge Broker to assign words, phrases and meta data to documents, and to provide statistic data (e.g. term frequencies).

Although many consulting companies have introduced IT-supported knowledge-management
systems, and proponents of the literature continue to advocate knowledge
management as a key to competitive advantage in consultancies, many
knowledge management systems have fallen short of expectation in companies
that have adopted them.
This paper reports such an empirical, explorative study identifying
the extent as well as impediments of the utilization of an IT-supported
knowledge management system in a large, global consulting company.
They decide whether and in what form submitted knowledge is made accessible
to all other network members.
The knowledge management process is organised in five distinct and one
overall embedded activities.

In this paper, we describe a novel approach to the generation of reusable computer-based assets to support the production and customisation of learning materials for user and environment constrained learning scenarios.
How part of a professional's knowledge, for industrial process control, can be structured for use by a learner for one particular approach to learning is discussed to illustrate different elements of context.
McCarthy's work on formalizing context presents the idea of adding context to a logical view to permit a logical proposition to be true in different contexts.
Learning can be encouraged by designing interaction between a learner and a professional, which consists of a dialectic of two identities.

Advances in information visualization offer promising tools for presenting knowledge structures and their development in an increasingly intuitive way.1 The scientific literature provides ingredients ripe for knowledge visualization.
The ACM hypertext citation network of 367 authors and 61,175 links as it appears in the MDS, MST, and Pathfinder solutions (from left to right), which consist of 0, 366, and 398 links, respectively.
Using a subset of the Science Citation Index (SCI), a citation database from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), researchers have applied VxInsight to the visualization of nuclear physics.
Users can apply such visualizations to discover patterns and make valuable connections between data.
Our experience has also revealed challenges that future work needs to resolve---some common to knowledge visualization in general, others specific to the citation-based approach.

Jensen's folksy description is an insightful commentary on what really matters to today's business professional.
The foundation for an effective information experience and the basis of intelligent content is intelligent classification: the practice of organizing information into taxonomy structures, of developing business-appropriate classification approaches, and carrying out ongoing categorization of new and existing content.
Administrators can take advantage of this feature to refine the business rules and improve accuracy for specific application requirements.
Verity and LexisNexis have announced a strategic alliance under which the two companies will deliver a new product offering that joins Verity content organization and infrastructure software with LexisNexis intellectual assets in a novel knowledge application framework for the enterprise.

The idea of a knowledge society appears all at once as an interrogation, a provocation and a challenge.1 Whether we receive it with mistrust or with curiosity, the 'knowledge-based society' is a fashionable conception.
Social exclusion has been a familiar fixture for some time.
And now, in the non-locus of cyberspace, the World Wide Web unravels a new plot, heedlessly bringing digital exclusion and other snares.
Learning must be made compatible with emancipation.
As the pre-established scripts are altered, leading technologies must be diverted to increase the flow of learning, speeding up and democratizing access to knowledge.
Unanimity plunges all thinking into an absolute reductionism.

Abbreviations are widely used in the biomedical domain, and the understanding of abbreviations requires a terminological knowledge base that consists of abbreviations with their associated senses.
In this paper, we propose an automatic method, which is not based on patterns or rules but is based on the use of collocations, to extract a set of related terms from parenthetical expressions including abbreviations associated with their expansions and other types of related terms such as synonyms, or hyponyms etc.
After collocations are detected and a set of pair-wise terms are generated, we then separate them into two sets so that relations that are not abbreviations are treated separately: i) abbreviations associated with expansions, and ii) other semantically related terms, according to lengths of two items in a pair and the existence of capitalized letters since usually, an abbreviation is short and contains capitalized letters, and an expansion is much longer than the corresponding abbreviation.

The aim is to show the needs of appropriate systems for knowledge management and to give advice to SME´s concerning the use of their existing knowledge and the organisation of their knowledge management in a knowledge-based economy.
For the development of a concept of knowledge management, it is helpful to describe the processes of change inside enterprises.
The use of computers, the implementation of new digital communication networks (Intra-/Internet) and the digitalisation of data processing changed not only business and production processes but also our everyday life.
A good example is the German,,Green Card for IT-experts" debate, see also: Friedewald, M. et al.: Softwareentwicklung in Deutschland.

Four factors account for the evolution of different societal evolutionary trajectories and the rise of the First, the presence of plants and animals which could be domesticated determined food production; hence the creation of conditions for a division of labor and specialization.
Second, the geographic position of human societies within a continent had an impact on the diffusion of knowledge about agricultural production, the transfer of plants and domesticated animals, and technology.

According to Annex 1 of the OntoWeb Project contract, the overall task of WP9 is "to manage, co-ordinate and initiate educational initiatives related to web standardisation activities and to topics related to the Semantic Web in general.
We have entirely redesigned the OntoWeb Educational Resources site (Ontoweb-Edu) to make it more robust and consistent and, as promised in our last report, we have implemented a submission and browsing mechanism.
The free-text search employs known Information Retrieval techniques and will provide a powerful basis for finding material.
In this section we will give an overview of the sorts of resources currently available based on our own searches and the resources that have been submitted to us.
Background theory Many of the resources we have collected deal with topics of relevance to learners about the Semantic Web.

They make possible the cross-border flow of information, promote international trade, particularly high technology, bits rather than atoms, type trade and help to attract foreign direct investment.
This optimistic assessment of the role of ICTs in development was summarized by U.S. Vice President Al Gore at the ITU conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1994 when he stated that the creation of the GII (which for all practical purposes is the global Internet) "is an essential prerequisite to sustainable development for all members of the human family".
Yet, Internet and telephone network considerations are not interchangeable because satellite and digital line (ISDN, T1, DSL) connections are also playing a role especially at the institutional, rather than individual user, level.

It is shown that Canadian science is increasingly produced in international collaboration and that all sectors are collaborating increasingly with each other.
A publication is assigned to each sector represented in the addresses.
We measured institutional collaborations between sectors using the addresses of authors in cosigned papers.
For example, the presence of at least one university address and of at least one private firm address is counted as one university-industry collaboration.
