Abstract:

Previous research in computer science shows that software developers are typically deluged by an enormous volume of information daily. Improving the effectiveness of developers to filter this information may yield significant productivity improvements. To combat this overload, we introduce an indicator, called degree-of-knowledge (DOK), which is a real value indicating how much knowledge a developer has with a source code element. A developer’s DOK values for a source code base can be computed automatically from authorship data mined from the source revision systems and from interaction data c

To do that the relations between Nonaka's enabling conditions and the four organisational culture types according to the competing value framework of Cameron and Quinn were tested in two organisations. Whilst many authors are critical of the specifics of Nonaka and Takeuchi’s model of knowledge conversion, most seem to agree with their argument about the requisite enabling conditions for knowledge creation.

It is commonly accepted nowadays that innovations are brought forward in an interactive process of knowledge generation and application.

More advanced innovations on the one hand might draw more on scientific knowledge, generated in universities and research organizations. Such knowledge is often exch

Abstract:

This thesis considers how Wikipedia justifies, structures, and legitimizes its production of knowledge. To do so the thesis positions Wikipedia as a site of conflict over the epistemic values between its wiki and encyclopaedic traditions. Through the literature review, the wiki epistemology is argued to be composed of six values: self-identification, collaboration, co-construction, cooperation, trust in the community, and constructionism. While these values are explicit, encyclopaedism’s were not found to be equally defined. To fill this gap, the thesis conducts a genre analysis of encyclopaed

Many innovation studies have been focusing on a narrow concept of innovation such as the generation of patents or new products.

Drawing on the concept of knowledge bases and innovation networks we argue that these different types of innovation require both internal competencies, and technological and market knowledge from variour kinds of external sources.

Abstract:

Traditionally, the field of education has often adopted a negative perspective in their views of minority families’ contributions to the educational progress of their children. However, research embodying the theoretical framework of ‘funds of knowledge’ attempts to counter that model through its assertion that all families possess extensive bodies of knowledge that have developed through social, historical, and cultural contexts.
