1999-05-16 , Schmid, Beat , Schmid-isler, Salome , Stanoevska-Slabeva, Katarina , Lechner, Ulrike

We reconsider the encyclopedic concept as a knowledge medium for the scientific community in the Internet. Referring to the ancient concept of encyclopedia, we reconstruct the encyclopedia for the new interactive carrier of information as a knowledge medium, representing and organizing knowledge for the scientific community anew on Internet. We envision thoseknowledge media as communication spheres for agents and exemplify them with the performance of the NetAcademy project.

1998-08-24 , Schmid, Beat , Stanoevska-Slabeva, Katarina , Yu, Lei

This paper explores the applications of new coordination technologies in distributed corporate planning. Firstly,new technologies such as Groupware, Workflow Management Systems, Internet and WWW for supporting distributed cooperative work are investigated. Then,GroupFlow, which is a Lotus Notes based workflow management solution, is selected to model and coordinatethe planning processes. Qualitative planning information is exchanged in a Notes Discussion Database. Andquantitative planning facts are processed by WWW-oriented Q-Calculus. Thereafter, a Lotus Notes basedintegrated framework for developing a distributed corporate planning system is given. Moreover, the implemented prototype is demonstrated by a corporatefinancial planning example in a bank. Finally, main experiences are summarized and an agent-based processmanagement perspective is briefly discussed.

1998-06-21 , Schmid, Beat , Stanoevska-Slabeva, Katarina

Knowledge has become the most important resource in many organisations. The success of an organisation depends on its ability to transform the personal knowledge of employees, as wellas knowledge stored in handbooks and other documents into organisational knowledge widely available according to special needs. In order to achieve this, innovative knowledge managementconcepts as well as technical platforms are required. Such platforms should provide on the one hand an integrated support for the representation, management and dissemination ofknowledge in changing internal and external structures. On the other hand they should provide support for the dissemination and reproduction of knowledge according to needs of different user groups in enterprises.

Efficient Information Retrieval: Tools for Knowledge Management

1998-09-14 , Schmid, Beat , Stanoevska-Slabeva, Katarina , Handschuh, Siegfried , Hombrecher, Alexis

Knowledge has become an important resource in many organisations. Thesuccess of an organisation depends on its ability to transform personal knowledge of employees into organisational knowledge. This knowledge can then be madewidely available to the entire organisation and be reused when needed.One necessary prerequisite for reusing knowledge, coded and stored indocuments, are appropriate classification and retrieval procedures. Classificationaccompanies the process of knowledge externalisation and retrieval supports the process of knowledge internalisation by enabling the capturing of appropriatecoded knowledge. In this paper we will evaluate currently available retrieval mechanism with respect to their effectiveness in knowledge management. We will then present a comprehensive classification and retrieval technology based on the Q-Technology, which provides support for the automated and intelligent classification and retrieval of knowledge.

Traditional media have concepts to ensure quality of information they carry, while new media make information ubiquitious. The NetAcademy project constitutes a new medium for knowledge accumulation and dissemination for scientifc purposes. It provides by its underlying carrier, the Internet, access to information and by its management concepts quality of information.We explore the NetAcademy with its open, distributed architecture, theNetAcademyNet and discuss, how such a medium as the NetAcademy will influence the process of publishing and scientific work.
