Management of Knowledge Models Using Information Technology
2021
The topics of implementing methods of information technology as one of the effective and important methods are discussed for organizational and institutional management purposes. Information technology allows a new knowledge to be discovered which is an important and effective way for the management of organizational processes in order to maintain competitive edge. In today’s competitive and globalization world, the main challenge for organizations remains to be defining customer-oriented strategy where knowledge and its management is an important factor. Recently active works is being conducted for establishing and developing effective models of knowledge management where information technology plays an important role. Generally, information system is a means of collecting and creating new knowledge existing between different individuals/structures using information technology. It describes instruments of knowledge management that allows collaboration and communication between part...
Three years have gone by since the second edition of this book. A number of developments could be observed over this period that have affected knowledge management (KM) and knowledge management systems (KMS). There is much more awareness about the importance of knowledge as strategic asset. Thus, the management part in KM has been strengthened with more emphasis on knowledge-intensive business processes, on process-oriented design of KM activities and on targeted interventions with the help of a set of KM instruments. Supporting KM with information and communication technologies (ICT) has survived the through of disillusionment. KM has gained increasing attention from diverse research disciplines. Indicators are the number of publications, conferences, Bachelor, Master and advanced education programs, new journals or existing journals the mission of which has been changed to focus KM or to extend the existing focus to include KM. After some slow-down, KM is also back on the agenda in many businesses and organizations. Indicators are an increasing number of case studies, growing interest in KM-oriented industry networks, a higher demand for internships, student workers as well as part-and full-time personnel with experience in KM, as well as more attendance on KM conferences, workshops and the like.
The Emerging Knowledge Management Paradigm: Some Organizational and Technical Issues
Proceedings of Intersymp 2003 the 15th International Conference on Systems Research Informatics and Cybernetics Baden Baden Germany, 2003
This paper addresses the expectations, organizational implications, and information processing requirements, of the emerging knowledge management paradigm. A brief discussion of the enablement of the individual through the widespread availability of computer and communication facilities, is followed by a description of the structural evolution of organizations, and the architecture of a computer-based knowledge management system. The author discusses two trends that are driven by the treatment of information and knowledge as a commodity: increased concern for the management and exploitation of knowledge within organizations; and, the creation of an organizational environment that facilitates the acquisition, sharing and application of knowledge. Tracing the evolution of the structure of organizations, the author concludes that the web-like features of the Network Model are most conducive to the promotion of knowledge management principles, even though this model does have liabilities that require careful monitoring. The paper further discusses in some detail the architecture of a knowledge management system that consists of a lower integrated data layer and an upper information layer. Attention is drawn to the need of the data layer to include not only archived summary data as found in Data Warehouses and Data Marts, but also near real-time operational data with convenient access provided by Data Portals. An important distinction is drawn between data-centric and information-centric software environments in terms of software with an internal information model capable of supporting agents with automatic reasoning capabilities. The paper concludes with a brief description of the mechanisms through which a Web-Services environment provides access to distributed data sources, as well as heterogeneous data-centric and information-centric software applications.
Information Technology for Knowledge Management
Journal of Universal Computer Science
Knowledge has been lately recognized as one of the most important assets of organizations. Can information technology help the growth and the sustainment of organizational knowledge? The answer is yes, if care is taken to remember that IT here is just a part of the story (corporate culture and work practices being equally relevant) and that the information technologies best suited for this purpose should be expressly designed with knowledge management in view. This special issue of the Journal of Universal Computer Science contains a selection of papers from the First Conference on Practical Applications of Knowledge Management. Each paper describes a specific type of information technology suitable for the support of different aspects of knowledge management.

In responding the rapid change of market, innovation is vital to many firms. Innovation needs knowledge. An organization's ability to collect, store and utilize knowledge it has generated through experience can improve its innovation performance. Researchers and practitioners point out the computer and communication techniques can support to store and reuse knowledge effectively. This IT-based knowledge management information system (KMIS) can actualize the management of knowledge and upgrade the innovation ability. However, a successful KMIS is not simply a good relational database or a sophisticated e-mail system. The effective knowledge management must take the human and organizational issues into consideration. From literature review, the study categories three kinds of KMIS mostly used in practice and summarizes the characteristics of each system. Then the empirical data were collected from a company in information-service industry. This company implements such a KMIS more than two years. Data about the usage, information quality requirement and implementation process for KMIS were obtained from interviews and questionnaires. By analyzing the theoretical literature and empirical data, the study presents results and discusses findings with respect to the implementation of the knowledge management information system.
