Abstract (sommario):

In today’s knowledge based economy information is a company’s most valuable resource. The technology industry in particular demands vast amounts of knowledge for innovation and development. Software development requires constantcommunication, exchange and collaboration. Although there is a variety of business collaboration and communication tools on the market, from a rather basic social intranet to a full-fledged digital workplace, most organization cannot manage to harvest their full potential and benefits for their business’s performance. By means of a case study carried out at an internationally operating Swedish game development studio this report aims to investigate what technological andcultural factors influence the result of an organization’s communication ecosystem. Based on the findings the goal is to better understand how to implement collaborative tools that add value to employees’ work with a focus on knowledge sharing. A literature study to identify common factors that are intertwined with the success of an organization’s collaboration tools ecosystem was performed. Thereafter a number of selected employees were involved in qualitative research in the form of interviews, focus groups and contextual inquiries at their workplace. The literature revealed 10 recurring factors that are inseparable from the success or failure of an internal communication ecosystem. The main findings include that a well functioning digital workplace initiative by all means can improve overall performance, not only increasing work efficiency but also by positively influencing employees’ relationships. Digital workplace tools have become an essential part of modern business operations and will most likely become even more important in the near future. Businesses must learn much about themselves, their employees and how to make knowledge accessible without hindrances if they want to stay competitive in the world of tomorrow.
I dagens kunskapsbaserade ekonomi är information ett företags mest viktigaste resurs. Speciellt teknikindustrin kräver en ofantlig stor mängd kunskap för innovation och utveckling. Mjukvaruutveckling kräver konstant kommunikation, utbyte och samarbete. Även om det på marknaden finns en stor variation av samarbets- och kommunikationsverktyg för företag, från grundläggande sociala intranät till fullfjädrade digitala arbetsplatser, så kan de flesta organisationer inte nå sin fulla potential gällande deras verksamhets prestation.Genom en fallstudie som genomförs vid en internationell spelutvecklingstudio i Sverige ämnar den här rapporten att undersöka vilka tekniska och kulturella faktorer som påverkar resultatet av en organisations kommunikations ekosystem. Målet är, baserat på fallstudiens resultat, att få en bättre förståelse hur samarbetsverktyg ska implementeras för att addera värde till de anställdas jobb, med fokus på delande av kunskap. För att identifiera faktorer som är kopplade till en organisations framgång och deras samarbetsverktyg så genomfördes en litteraturstudie. Därefter var ett flertal av de anställda involverade i en kvalitativ studie med intervjuer, fokusgrupper och kontextuella frågor gällande sin arbetsplats. Litteraturstudien avslöjade tio återkommande faktorer som är oskiljaktiga för framgång eller misslyckande i ett internt kommunikations-ekosystem. Huvudsakliga resultatet inkluderar att ett välfungerande digitalt arbetsplatsinitiativ för all del kan förbättra den övergripande prestationen. Inte bara gällande ökad arbetseffektivitet utan även de anställdas relationer. Digitala arbetsplatsverktyg har blivit en viktig del av modern affärsverksamhet och kommer sannolikt att bli ännu viktigare inom en snar framtid.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis addresses the issues of coherent distributed knowledge production and sharing in the Life-science area. In spite of the continuously increasing computing and storage capabilities of computing infrastructures, the management of massive scientific data through centralized approaches became inappropriate, for several reasons: (i) they do not guarantee the autonomy property of data providers, constrained, for either ethical or legal concerns, to keep the control over the data they host, (ii) they do not scale and adapt to the massive scientific data produced through e-Science platforms. In the context of the NeuroLOG and VIP Life-science collaborative platforms, we address on one hand, distribution and heterogeneity issues underlying, possibly sensitive, resource sharing ; and on the other hand, automated knowledge production through the usage of these e-Science platforms, to ease the exploitation of the massively produced scientific data. We rely on an ontological approach for knowledge modeling and propose, based on Semantic Web technologies, to (i) extend these platforms with efficient, static and dynamic, transparent federated semantic querying strategies, and (ii) to extend their data processing environment, from both provenance information captured at run-time and domain-specific inference rules, to automate the semantic annotation of ''in silico'' experiment results. The results of this thesis have been evaluated on the Grid'5000 distributed and controlled infrastructure. They contribute to addressing three of the main challenging issues faced in the area of computational science platforms through (i) a model for secured collaborations and a distributed access control strategy allowing for the setup of multi-centric studies while still considering competitive activities, (ii) semantic experiment summaries, meaningful from the end-user perspective, aimed at easing the navigation into massive scientific data resulting from large-scale experimental campaigns, and (iii) efficient distributed querying and reasoning strategies, relying on Semantic Web standards, aimed at sharing capitalized knowledge and providing connectivity towards the Web of Linked Data.

Tesis para optar al grado de Doctor en Ciencias, Mención Computación
Las plataformas de redes sociales han cambiado la forma de buscar y encontrar información en la web. En particular, los sitios de Preguntas y Respuestas (QA: Question Answering) han surgido como plataformas diseñadas específicamente para el intercambio de preguntas y respuestas entre las comunidades de usuarios. Si bien los usuarios tienden a encontrar respuestas de buena calidad en estos sitios, hay evidencia de que existe un volumen significativo de interacciones QA en plataformas sociales como Twitter. La literatura al día de hoy indica que los usuarios eligen este tipo de plataformas, no especializadas para QA, dado que contienen información actualizada de eventos recientes, por la rapidez en la propagación de la información y además por la confianza social (con el círculo cercano). A pesar del potencial que tiene la información de las redes sociales para tareas de QA, no es sencillo utilizarla través de la aplicación de técnicas ya existentes basadas en sitios tradicionales de QA. Existen características únicas que diferencian el contenido social de las plataformas tradicionales de QA, por ejemplo; el tamaño de los mensajes suele ser corto y sin mucho contenido, por lo tanto no es simple determinar la calidad del mismo. Además el contenido es más propenso a ser ruidoso, irrelevante o por debajo del estándar. Lo anterior, en combinación con la alta cantidad de información que se genera en cada instante, constituye una sobrecarga de información que es compleja de extraer y estructurar para tareas de QA. En esta tesis, estudiamos el potencial que tienen las plataformas de microblogs para tareas de QA. Además estudiamos las características que poseen las respuestas más relevantes dada una pregunta inicial. En particular, creamos un modelo de documento a nivel de hilos de conversación en microblogs que nos permitió agregar información de contenido y entrenar un modelo de ranking basado en preguntas y respuestas de tipo factoid. Nuestros resultados experimentales, llevados a cabo en Twitter, nos indican que esta plataforma social sí provee de información valiosa para tareas de QA. Además identificamos las principales características de contenido y sociales (y la combinación entre ellas) que permiten obtener respuestas relevantes. El modelo consigue una mejora de alrededor de un 62% con respecto al método base empleado. De hecho, empleando el mismo modelo ya entrenado y la técnica de Transfer Learning, fuimos capaces de responder preguntas más complejas de tipo non-factoid capturadas directamente de Twitter.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

In the offshore oil and gas industry in the UK, one of the most common forms of structure is the fixed steel jacket type of offshore platform. These are highly redundant structures subject to many random or uncertain factors. In particular, they are subject to uncertainties in the load distribution through the components, and to time-varying and cyclic loads leading to deterioration through fatigue. Operators are required to ensure the integrity of these structures by carrying out periodic inspections and repairing when necessary. Decisions on inspection, repair and maintenance (IRM) actions on structures involves making use of various tools and can be a complex problem. Traditionally, engineering judgement is employed to schedule inspections and deterministic analyses are used to confirm decisions. The use of structural reliability methods may lead to more rational scheduling of IRM actions. Applying structural reliability analysis to the production of rational inspection strategies, however, requires understanding the inspection procedure and making use of the appropriate information on inspection techniques. There are difficulties in collecting input data and the interpreted results need to be combined to form a rational global solution for the structure which takes into account practical constraints. The development of a knowledge base system (KBS) for reliability based inspection scheduling (RISC) provides a way of making use of complex quantitative objective analyses for scheduling. This thesis describes the development of a demonstrator RISC KBS. The general problems of knowledge representation and scheduling are discussed and schemes from Artificial Intelligence are proposed. Additionally, a system for automated inspection is described and its role in IRM of platforms is considered. A RISC System integrating suitable databases with fatigue fracture mechanics based reliability analysis within a KBS framework will enable operators to develop rational IRM scheduling strategies.

Abstract (sommario):

Genom fallet QlikTech ger denna uppsats en aktuell inblick i hur kunskapshantering kan hanteras i en kunskapsintensiv kontext. Medarbetare har i dag möjligheter att samarbeta inom olika interaktiva digitala miljöer för att hitta och dela med sig av kunskap och erfarenheter. Denna uppsats fokuserar på att undersöka hur digitala Communitys uppkommer, växer fram och integreras för att uppnå global kunskapsdelning inom organisationer. Detta ses som en framgångsfaktor för att ta vara på kunskapsintensiva utvecklingsföretags kretivitet och innovationskraft.Genom ett tolkande tillvägagångssätt, analyseras åtta semistrukturerade kvalitativa intervjuer med medarbetare på QlikTech för att undersöka hur olika informationssystem används för att stödja olika kunskaps- och kollaborationsprocesser. Intervjuerna kompletteras med observationer and dokumentanalyser för att nå djupare insikter.Resultaten tyder på att användare använder system med fördefinierade strukturer för att dokumentera officiell kunskap, och system med framväxande strukturer för informell dialog och samarbete. Olika system kompletterar varandra, då kunskap förs över mellan system. Gräsrotsinitierande informationssystem kompenserar för glappet mellan officiella IT-implementationer och sociala kommunikationsbehov.Teknologi och praktik utvecklas hand-i-hand. Då diskussioner, idéer, perspektiv och kontext kan upprätthålls i emergent social software platforms, t.ex. Salesforce.com, kan komplext problemlösande underlättas i datorstött samarbete. Dessa plattformar minimerar glappet mellan den formella och sociala kommunikationen inom communities of practice, vilket ger förutsättningar för organisatorisk lärande.På QlikTech växer digitala communitys fram organiskt över tid. Organisationer använder data- och text mining och relaterade teknologier för att brygga fragmenterade communitys för att uppnå kapacitet att nå isolerade kunskapskällor genom sökning. Organisationer kan lägga till sociala lager över dessa fragmenterade back-end-system, designade för att bilda övergripande gränssnitt mot användare som underlättar samarbete och driver på innovation inom arbetsplatsen.
This thesis provides contemporary insights how knowledge management can be approached by a knowledge-intensive organisation. Knowledge workers today have unprecedented means to collaborate in different spaces of knowledge sharing. By analysing the case of QlikTech, results indicate that knowledge management is an integral part of knowledge-intensive organisations.By adapting an interpretive approach, eight semi-structured qualitative interviews with employees at QlikTech are analysed to find out how different information systems support different knowledge and collaboration processes. The interviews are complemented by on-the-job observations and analysis of documents to reach deeper understanding.Results indicate that users use systems with predefined structures to document official knowledge, and systems with emergent structures for informal dialogue and collaboration. Different systems complement each other, as knowledge is transferred between systems. Grass root initiated information systems compensate for the gap between official technology implementations and the social communication needs.Technology and practice co-evolve. As discussions, ideas, perspectives and context can be sustained in emergent social software platforms, such as Salesforce.com, complex problem-solving can be enabled in computer-supported cooperative work. These platforms minimise the gap between the formal and social communication within communities of practice, which facilitates organisational learning.At QlikTech, digital communities emerge organically over time. Organisations can use data and text mining, natural language processing and information extraction technologies to bridge fragmented communities to gain the capabilities to access dispersed knowledge sources through search. Organisations can add a social layer of these fragmented back-end systems, designed for building cross-functional employee-facing communities that drive collaboration and accelerate innovation in the workplace.

Abstract (sommario):

Intellectual capital is the single most important asset owned by any organization. Business continuity and the long term sustainability of every business organization depends partly on how well accumulated organizational knowledge is passed on from generation to generation. Knowledge is hard to capture due to its implicit nature and even harder to manage, thus the deployment of numerous knowledge management systems by organizations in recent times. Knowledge sharing among employees within organizations can sometimes be very problem-atic. These problems stem from issues pertaining to power, secrecy, individualism, time, ignorance and technological issues among others. This paper seeks to investigate how web 2.0 technologies are being used to overcome these problems and facilitate knowledge sharing as well as collaboration. Web 2.0 has been described as the new web which focuses on the use of platforms. Platforms are digital environments in which contributions and interactions are globally visible. The new web technologies which are based on platforms are referred to as emergent social software platforms (ESSP‘s). The use of these web 2.0 technologies (ESSP‘s) within a business enterprise for the achievement of business goals is known as enterprise 2.0 (E2.0). Central to this research is the knowledge sharing cycle model, which has three main stages; internalization, externalization, and objectification. Internalization occurs when individuals acquire or learn from the organization. Externalization is achieved when individual implicit knowledge is made explicit. Objectification is making new knowledge globally accepted. This cycle has been adapted to illustrate the role played by ESSP‘s in facilitating knowledge sharing. A case study of IBM Corporation is used to arrive at the findings which are used to adapt the model. IBM Corporations extensively deploys E2.0. The company uses one central Social networking platform called IBM connections, which incorporates several ESSP‘s. There are seven services on IBM connections which include profiles, Activities, wikis, blogs, bookmarks, Files, and communities. Employing the interview technique, observations and the use of secondary data, the research questions are answered. The findings indicate that ESSP‘s can be used to support knowledge sharing practices and also helps to convert knowledge into its different forms (explicit and implicit). Blogs, wikis, and communities support internaliza-tion and externalization. The process of objectification is supported by wikis. Findings also indicate that the services within IBM connections platform support mass collaboration and foster strong ties among employees. In an objective manner, the paper points out some of the negative consequences of E2.0. Major issues uncovered through the case study include, sensi-tive data, undefined way of working with ESSP‘s, privacy, abuse of use, and lack of interest.

Abstract (sommario):

The study investigates the rise of online platforms that support teacher-to-teacher knowledge mobilisation. The adoption of the interpretative approach focuses the investigation on how the online platforms, their resources and the learning opportunities they provide are conceptualised by teachers in relation to their broader teaching practice, workplace culture and professional learning. The study is framed by two overarching research questions. (1) What is the nature of the knowledge being shared and reconstructed by teachers in Internet-mediated knowledge mobilisation? (2) What is the nature of the learning arising from teacher-to-teacher Internet-mediated knowledge mobilisation? The study employs a multiple case-study design to investigate two United States based online platforms, which facilitate teacher-to-teacher knowledge sharing. Twenty teachers from across the two cases were selected to participate in the study. A qualitative methodology was utilised. Teachers participated in an individual, face-to-face interview. In the two months following the initial interview teachers completed a weekly journal log detailing their engagement with the platform. Upon the completion of their journal logs, teachers participated in a follow-up interview via Skype. To help to contextualise the individual teachers within the broader case and to enrich their personal stories, observations of the platforms occurred throughout the data collection period. The study proposes a new theoretical model for how to conceptualise Internet-mediated knowledge mobilisation, the knowledge that is produced and the learning that occurs through the reconstruction process. It emphasises the connection between offline and online contexts and the role the platforms play in breaking down the boundaries between teachers' school-based practice and online resources and learning opportunities. The framework encapsulates the combining of the individual and their contexts of action, together with the platform and the information and knowledge it contains, to determine and shape the operation of the knowledge reconstruction process and the learning that transpires. Internet-mediated knowledge mobilisation facilitates the development of teachers' personal, practical knowledge by providing insight into the instructional practice of teachers and exposing teachers to new ideas and perspectives, which support the expansion of their propositional structures and episodic knowledge. Access to relevant, teacher-created materials increases the efficiency and effectiveness with which teachers can undertake elements of their practice, while also promoting learning through participation in work-based tasks. Individualism emerges as the dominant mode of engagement and learning in the study, with individual teachers regulating not only how and when they engage but also determining the outcomes they construct from their actions. The Internet, as a knowledge mediator, opens up new possibilities that are not available in teachers' offline contexts. It not only breaks down boundaries between teachers, but it also collapses boundaries between the various settings of teachers' professional practice and learning, effectively merging the offline and online contexts of teachers' work. The dual contexts of the platforms offer specific affordances that help to shape teachers' engagement, while also acting to promote new learning processes that do not exist in offline knowledge mobilisation.

Abstract (sommario):

This master thesis is the qualitative research with a question whether principles Web 2.0 when implemented, could bring change to organizational knowledge process and influence barriers to knowledge sharing. Nowadays all the constantly growing companies present on the international market has their offices in many countries, separated not only by distance, but also by culture and working hours. This working style brings a lot of benefits to them on local markets, but it also brings some troubles and challenges in terms of management of whole enterprise. The obligatoriness of managing the tacit knowledge sharing is becoming more considerable, because companies face with a problem to bridge the knowledge gap between more experienced employees and new ones. The discussion about how to collect that knowledge and transfer it is still open. This case is sensible for big firms with departments which consult other employees, which are the main focus of this study. In this study there researched and found factors that influence social learning and knowledge sharing in the view of enterprise companies. Research found strong and weak sides of the currently implemented knowledge sharing systems at all and from the point of view of enterprise companies. This research used the qualitative research method as there is the need of exact understanding of how implementing of this system can improve work processes or what discomfort it can bring. In the analysis chapter factors that have direct influence on social knowledge sharing was found and analyzed. In discussion chapter suggestions to the company for further developing and improving present situation was provided.

Chatbots sind text- oder sprachbasierte Dialogautomatismen, die von Organisationen für eine Vielzahl von Use Cases, wie z.B. der Änderungen von Kundendaten oder dem Abrufen von FAQs, eingesetzt werden können. Eine spannende strategische Dimension, die sich aus der immer stärkeren Verbreitung von Chatbots ergibt, liegt in der Nutzung sogenannter Conversational Platforms (CP). Letztere sind Technologien für text- und sprachbasierte Konversationen, die sich den einfachen aber vielfältigen Standard “Dialog” zunutze machen. [Aus der Einleitung.]

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis study explores the existing knowledge management and sharing practices in donor organizations, particularly working in the developing countries. The potentional of knowledge management and sharing to facilitate development organizations in carrying out development work has been recognised in the literature. Literature presented mix of critique and appreciation to the existing efforts of donor agencies. Knowledge sharing platforms revolves around the country initiatives and donor agencies like UNDP and World Bank which are proactive in establishing these platforms for partner organizations. This research contributes practical insight to the question of delivery of these platforms, through an empirical investigation based on the development professionals' experiences. As earlier research shows enormous amount of literature on individual, team and organizational level knowledge sharing, this study sets prime focus on community level or external knowledge sharing, an area where there exist a dearth of emperical research or contributing literature on examing the role of sharing initiatives and possible contribution in improving risk management in development projects. Literature shows the potential of knowledge management and sharing practices, as their possible contribution in the global development practices and in bridging gap between North-South stakeholders. However, cultural, technological, organizational and individual level issues escalate with external level of knowledge sharing and thesis rightly, identifies success factors from the literature alongwith their viability from the professionals. It is even more inadequate when it comes to projects of donor organizations in under developed and developing countries. With 80% of documented failure rates of knowledge sharing systems, external knowledge sharing with partner organizations or network organizations is really not adequate and do not have supporting culture. As this whole process of sharing knowledge, heavily relies on the perceived motivation and willingness to share, study has tried to identify the challenges facing wider use of these sharing systems. Study also contributes with suggestions for knowledge management and sharing system developers, policy and decision makers and system users, to improve the overall contribution of knowledge sharing in better risk management. Apart from the cultural barriers, there are technical and policy level issues which need more concerted efforts to improve the use of these sharing systems by various organizations and individuals.

O cenário mundial se configura integrado, dinâmico, com alto desenvolvimento tecnológico e capacidade produtiva. Milhões de pessoas estão ingressado no mercado de consumo e os recursos naturais vêm se esgotando simultaneamente ao aumento dos resíduos sólidos urbanos, comprometendo a sustentabilidade do planeta. Neste contexto complexo, os desafios que as empresas enfrentam para se manterem competitivas são inúmeros. O modelo metaprojetual que consolida o design como estratégia competitiva e propõe a construção de plataformas de conhecimentos que dêem suporte às tomadas de decisão de projeto é um dos caminhos para este enfrentamento e foi adotado na pesquisa. Foi realizado um Estudo de Caso para confrontar o modelo teórico do esquema sistêmico de desenvolvimento do processo metaprojetual, com o modelo praticado por uma indústria. Com os dados coletados foi possível fazer uma análise comparativa entre os dois modelos e identificar os pontos fortes e fracos de cada um. O estudo permitiu indicar temas a serem trabalhados na plataforma de conhecimentos da empresa, no sentido de gerar inputs para a construção de cenários e soluções de projeto inovadoras. Também foi possível propor novas diretrizes para compor o modelo teórico adotado e que poderão ser úteis para outras organizações.
The world scenario is configured integrated, dynamic, with both, high technological development and productive capability. While millions of people are entering into the consumer market, the natural resources are running out simultaneously with the rise of municipal solid waste, affecting the sustainability of the planet. In this complex context, the challenges faced by companies in order to remain competitive are innumerous. The metaprojectual model that consolidates the design as a competitive strategy and proposes the construction of knowledge platforms to support the decision-making in the projectual activity is one of the ways to deal with, and it was adopted in this research. A case study was conducted to confront the theoretical model of the systemic scheme of metaprojectual development process, with the model practiced by an industry. With the research data it was possible to do a comparative analysis between the two models and identify the strengths and weaknesses of each one of them. The study enabled to indicate subjects to be included in the company's knowledge platform in order to generate inputs for the construction of scenarios and innovative design solutions. It was also possible to propose new guidelines to be part of the theoretical model that may be useful to other organizations.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis provides a theoretical and empirical analysis of European Technology Platforms (ETPs) and the important and interesting questions their emergence and impact raises about the nature and character of policymaking and governance in the EU; in particular, the role of knowledge and expertise in policymaking and the emerging threat of technocratic models of governance. The thesis seeks to examine whether ETPs are a manifestation of technocratic forms of policymaking, or represent a mechanism for assisting the European Commission to manage and control the increasing need for knowledge and expertise in policy formulation. The theoretical analysis focuses on policymaking approaches that place stakeholders, knowledge and expertise at the epicentre of policymaking (policy networks, epistemic communities, advocacy coalitions and technocracy) and the emergence of counter arguments that emphasize the complex interrelationship between institutions and actors in the process (new institutionalism). It examines whether either of these competing approaches can accurately describe and explain the role of ETPs in policymaking. The empirical analysis questions whether ETPs form part of a well‐established knowledge process that has evolved out of the unique institutional architecture of the EU manifested in what has been described as the ‘Community Method’ based on the legacy of Jean Monnet. The thesis finds that through the development of ETPs the Commission has developed an effective mechanism for gathering the necessary knowledge, expertise and stakeholder support on which to legitimise policy proposals and shape member state preference. Furthermore, through ETPs, the Commission is able mobilise competing stakeholder interests within a deliberative policy forum to provide an effective safeguard against expert domination in the highly complex and technical areas of policy that have become the cornerstone of a modern knowledge‐based economy.

Abstract (sommario):

The objective of the study was to develop a framework for the implementation of a Business Information Management System in order to increase the efficiency of the knowledge management strategy in the ultimate quest to deliver administrative support to public schools at the Gauteng Department of Education within the Sedibeng East District Office geographical area. A literature investigation was done on the concepts of e–Government, eplatforms, information technology and enablers to determine if Government models are working effectively and efficiently. Based on the findings of the literature study, a questionnaire was designed and used to measure the efficiency of the knowledge management strategy in the base of administrative support to public schools. Government to Government models are the ability to interact and support services through the availability of e–platforms in the ultimate support, and sharing of knowledge through effective knowledge management. Knowledge in an organisation alternates between tacit and explicit knowledge as it goes from an idea to explicit knowledge that can be shared throughout the whole organisation and in the process gives the necessary administrative support to public schools and learners. Proper managed and implemented systems are important for the management of knowledge in an organisation. Knowledge management is a never–ending cycle that starts at discovering knowledge and goes through generating knowledge, evaluating knowledge, sharing the newly found knowledge to leveraging the knowledge. This cycle forms the heart of a knowledge management model like the different education e–platforms that is available. It was concluded that the knowledge in an organisation can be managed with the help of one standardized e–platform model throughout the entire Education Department. Knowledge in an organisation is a very important resource and ought to be strategically managed. The knowledge management strategy starts by determining what knowledge is needed and what is available in the organisation. The chosen standardized model will form the central part of a successful knowledge management strategy. The test for the success of a knowledge management strategy is determined with a knowledge audit. The state of the knowledge management strategy at Gauteng Department of Education, Sedibeng East District Office was assessed by employing convenience survey questionnaires to extract the data. Sedibeng East District Office and therefore the Department of Education, still have a long way to go in order to optimise the management of knowledge. The key area of concern is a lack of a written knowledge management strategy and policy which results in informal e–platform usage and therefore different ways of managing knowledge. A large portion of the indecisiveness seen in the analysis of the questionnaires could be attributed to the lack of a formal knowledge management strategy. It was further concluded that a knowledge gap assessment is the start of the knowledge management strategy and will give direction to the strategy. The culture at Sedibeng East District Office was not tested to determine if the staff will be supportive of a knowledge management strategy. However, the survey indicated that much needed administrative support to public schools needs to be formalized in order to optimize the services and standards of support. A practical knowledge management framework is proposed in order to assist the Department in the implementation of a knowledge management strategy and bridging the gaps found after analysing the questionnaires.

Abstract (sommario):

Face à l’explosion démographique des pays à faible revenu en Afrique sub-saharienne, l’agriculture joue un rôle primordial pour garantir la sécurité alimentaire. Le secteur agricole est de plus la principale source d'emploi dans cette région. Les femmes constituent la principale main-d'œuvre agricole de ces pays. En raison de leur rôle clé dans le secteur agricole, les agricultrices sont prioritaires dans les interventions politiques. Par ailleurs, dans ces pays, le conseil agricole et le partage des connaissances sont nécessaires pour s’adapter à de nouvelles contraintes. Depuis quelques années, les technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC) ont permis le développement de nouveaux outils visant à améliorer la portée et l’efficacité du conseil. Les gouvernements de ces pays sont cependant confrontés à des critiques concernant l'impact de ces outils, qui peuvent également contribuer à une fracture numérique touchant plus particulièrement les femmes qui travaillent dans les exploitations agricoles familiales.La thèse de doctorat analyse comment les outils TIC tiennent compte des rapports de genre, et de la situation des femmes qui travaillent sur l’exploitation agricole familiale. La thèse est fondée sur le cas du Kenya. Elle est focalisée sur le développement des plateformes de connaissances, un instrument TIC utilisé par le Gouvernement kenyan pour atteindre les objectifs de politiques publiques. Ce pays est emblématique car il fait l'hypothèse que les plateformes peuvent être inclusives des agricultrices.Pour cette recherche, le travail s'appuie sur trois approches d’économie institutionnelle : l’économie féministe, la théorie de la régulation, et l'économie des services. Il présente un cadre méthodologique et conceptuel, développé pour analyser l'intégration des rapports de genre dans les plateformes aux échelles macro, méso et micro.Les résultats montrent que les rapports de genre sont présentés associés à un objectif d'équité pour le Gouvernement Kenyan. L'analyse confirme que les plateformes sont considérées comme de nouveaux outils d'inclusion du système de vulgarisation du gouvernement. La typologie de plateformes développée dans ce travail montre cependant que ces instruments peuvent être une source d'inégalité. Il s'agit en particulier de l'inégalité d'accès pour les agricultrices et de services standardisés qui ne correspondent pas aux attentes de ces femmes. La conjugaison de différentes approches économiques institutionnelles a permis d'analyser comment les évolutions institutionnelles affectent l'inclusion des objectifs d’égalité des sexes dans l’intervention publique et dans le fonctionnement effectif des plateformes. Les résultats présentent des leviers d’action pouvant être pris en considération par les politiques et les concepteurs des plateformes, pour une tenir compte des rapports de genre dans ce système de vulgarisation agricole et éviter d’engendrer de nouvelles discrimination. L'analyse révèle l'importance de disposer d'un espace d'intervention publique et de coordination dans ce nouveau système de conseil agricole basé sur les TICs
Low-income sub-Saharan African countries are confronted with demographic explosion since the last 60 years. Consequently, agriculture plays a key role in ensuring food security. The agricultural sector is also the main source of employment in this region. Women are the major contributing labour force in agriculture in these sub-Saharan African countries. Connected to their key role in the agricultural sector, women farmers are prioritised in policy intervention. Moreover, agricultural extension services are necessary to adapt to different constraints in these countries. Transfer of knowledge is also required to guarantee farm yields and consequently improve small-scale farmers’ livelihoods. Lately, information and communication technologies (ICTs) have enabled the development of new tools, aimed at improving the scope and the effectiveness of advisory services. Policy makers in sub-Saharan African countries are nonetheless confronted with critical questions regarding the impact of these tools, which can also contribute to a ‘digital gender gap’. These issues particularly concern women farmers.This PhD research analyses how ICT tools take into account gender relations, and the situation of women farmers. The thesis is based on the case of Kenya. The dissertation particularly focuses on the development of knowledge-based platforms in agriculture, an ICT policy instrument used by the Kenyan Government to achieve public policy objectives. This country is emblematic because it believes in the assumption that platforms can be inclusive of women farmers’. To answer to this research question, the work is based on three different institutional economic research approaches: feminist economics, the French regulation theory, and economics of services. A conceptual and methodological framework is presented to analyse the inclusion of gender equality in knowledge-based platforms at macro-, meso-, and micro- level.The results provide evidence that gender equality objectives is a fundamental guiding principle to the Government of Kenya. The analysis show that platforms are considered as new tools of inclusiveness in farm advisory services innovation. Observations from a developed platform typology framework show however that platforms can be source of gender inequality. It especially concerns women farmers unequal access to these instruments and the standardised services that they offer. This is essentially related to the institutional nature of the platform. Indeed, as it turns out, a high number of these instruments are based upon complex partnerships, and financed by multi-national corporations and/or foundations from the agrifood industry based in the Northern hemisphere. Combining institutional economic approaches allowed to bring out critical points of inclusion to be considered by policy makers and platform developers. Disregarding these specificities may make these platforms into new vectors of exclusion. Recognising and taking into account the conditions for inclusion can bring to light powerful levers for improving the efficiency of platforms

Abstract (sommario):

As the workplace becomes increasingly digital, tasks have shifted from being physically demanding to instead digitally processing knowledge and information. Employees are therefore regarded as knowledge workers and for them to succeed in the digital workplace, they place high demands on IT systems that encourage communication, collaboration and document management. To meet the knowledge workers needs, it has become increasingly common to implement collaboration platforms. However, organizations often implement collaboration platforms without further thought about how they should be used. At the same time, there is no knowledge of previous research that shows what factors make employees use collaboration platforms. The purpose of the thesis is therefore to investigate which factors lead to IT accustomed knowledge workers in the IT consulting industry using the collaboration platform in the digital workplace. By examining knowledge workers' perceptions of their use, we hope to be able to find answers to the factors that contribute to the use of collaboration platforms. The thesis applies a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews on ten IT accustomed knowledge workers divided into two organizations in the IT consulting industry. To consider socio-technical aspects of use, empiricism has been analyzed with a conceptual model that integrates Theory of planned behavior and Technology acceptance model. Our results show that attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use play an influential role in the use of collaboration platforms. At the same time, subjective norms and perceived usefulness are proposed to be the factors that have the strongest impact on use.
I takt med digitaliseringen av arbetsplatsen har arbetsuppgifter övergått till att istället digitalt bearbeta kunskap och information. Anställda betraktas därför som kunskapsarbetare och för att de ska lyckas i sitt arbete ställer de höga krav på IT-system som uppmuntrar kommunikation, samarbete och dokumenthantering. För att tillgodose detta behov har det blivit allt vanligare att implementera samarbetsplattformar. Organisationer implementerar ofta samarbetsplattformar utan vidare eftertanke kring hur de ska användas. Samtidigt finns det ingen kännedom om tidigare forskning som visar vilka faktorer som får anställda att använda samarbetsplattformar. Syftet med uppsatsen är därför att undersöka vilka faktorer som leder till att IT-vana kunskapsarbetare inom IT-konsultbranschen använder samarbetsplattformen inom den digitala arbetsplatsen. Genom att undersöka kunskapsarbetares uppfattning om deras användande hoppas vi kunna finna svar på vilka faktorer som bidrar till användande av samarbetsplattformar. Uppsatsen tillämpar kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer på tio IT-vana kunskapsarbetare uppdelat på två organisationer inom IT-konsultbranschen. För att ta hänsyn till socio-tekniska aspekter vid användande har empirin analyserats med en konceptuell modell som integrerat Theory of planned behavior och Technology acceptance model. Våra resultat visar att attityd, subjektiva normen, upplevd beteendekontroll, upplevd användbarhet och upplevd användarvänlighet har en påverkande roll för användandet av samarbetsplattformar. Samtidigt föreslås subjektiva normer och upplevd användbarhet vara de faktorer som har starkast påverkan på användande.

Abstract (sommario):

La mondialisation, l'adaptation au besoin du consommateur, le lancement de nouveaux produits présentent des défis permanents et rendent l'innovation un axe stratégique pour réussir sur le marché. Ces exigences ont crée une demande croissante pour repenser le processus d'innovation et plus particulièrement la gestion des projets innovants à travers la mise en place de plateformes d'innovation. Cela revient à créer des équipes dédiées à l'innovation et dont les membres impliqués et disposant de connaissances transversales sont capables de les partager pour innover. Ce travail doctoral cherche à examiner et identifier le rôle du partage des connaissances entre les membres de plateformes d'innovation dans l'élaboration d'un processus d'innovation et répond par conséquentà la problématique : Comment le partage des connaissances au sein des plateformes d'innovation favorise t-il l'émergence des innovations ? En examinant le phénomène du partage des connaissances sous l'angle d'une articulation entre management de l'innovation et management des connaissances, cette recherche se base sur l'approche par les connaissances de la firme, où les pratiques cognitives et sociales jouent un rôle important pour l'innovation. A travers une recherche qualitative, trois études de cas ont été menées au sein des trois plateformes d'innovation d'un groupe leader du secteur agroalimentaire en Tunisie. Nous avons pu identifier les dispositifs organisationnels qui influencent les interactions entre les membres impliqués au sein des plateformes d'innovation. L'examen approfondi des pratiques de chacune des plateformes d'innovation étudiée nous a permis d'observer les phénomènes suivants.Bien que la mise en place des plateformes d'innovation s'inscrive dans une stratégie managériale centrée sur l'innovation et fait référence à un modèle de base, les pratiques de chaque plateforme d'innovation est spécifique. Au-delà du caractère transversal de leur structure, les plateformes d'innovation apparaissent comme une formule relativement souple que chaque entreprise du groupe s'approprie et adapte à son contexte et ses contraintes. Dans les trois cas étudiés, le partage des connaissances s'appréhende comme une approche organisationnelle et technologique ayant pour but la mise en commun et l'intégration des connaissances entre les membres d'une plateforme d'innovation pour innover. L'intérêt de cette approche n'est pas basé sur la connaissance en soi mais sur « Qui » la détient et « Comment » la partage au sein de la plateforme d'innovation. Finalement, deux éléments ont permis de mieux appréhender le partage des connaissances : le management stratégique et la culture d'entreprise. Les enseignements que l'on tire de l'étude de ces plateformes d'innovation étudiées, c'est quand il y a action délibérée pour instaurer une démarche d'innovation fondée sur le partage des connaissances, cette action devient une épisode critique de la vie de l'organisation dans la mesure où elle remet en jeu l'équilibre des pouvoirs, suscite l'enthousiasme de certains acteurs et la méfiance d'autres. Cette thèse, avec les trois plateformes d'innovation étudiées, ne touche pas qu'au niveau culturel des pratiques de partage des connaissances, mais touche aussi au niveau identitaire. La thèse défendue est la suivante : le partage des connaissances entre les membres des plateformes d'innovation impacte l'émergence des innovations au sein des entreprises étudiées. En termes de contribution managériale, nous considérons que le partage des connaissances au sein des plateformes d'innovation est un levier d'action stratégique pour les démarches d'innovation
The globalization, the adaptation to the consumer needs, the creation of new products represent permanent challenges to promote the market demand and make the innovation a strategic axis to approach. These requirements have enhanced an increasing necessity to rethink about the process of innovation and more particularly the management of the innovative projects through the implementation of innovation platforms. Team work is dedicated to the innovation where the involved members have transverse knowledge and are capable of sharing them to innovate.This doctoral approach tries to examine and to identify the role of the sharing knowledge between the members of innovation platforms in the elaboration of aninnovation process. It deals withthe following problematic: howthe sharing knowledgewithin the innovation platforms favour the emergence of innovations ? By examining the phenomenon of the knowledge sharing taking into consideration an articulation between innovation management and knowledge management,this research digs deep into the Knowledge-based View of the firm, where the cognitive and social practices play an important role for the innovation. Through a qualitative research, three case studies were led within three innovation platforms of a leader group for food industry sector in Tunisia. We were able to identify the organizational devices which influence the interactions between the members involved within the innovation platforms. The deep examination of the practices of each innovation platform allowed us to observe the following phenomena: although the implementation of the innovation platformsis linked to the managerial strategy based on innovation and makes a reference toa basic model, the practices of every platform of innovation is specific. Beyond the transverse quality of their structure, the innovation platforms appear as a relatively flexible formula that every enterprise of the groupcan appropriate and adapt it to its context and its constraints. In the three case studies, the knowledge sharing appears as an organizational and technological approach aiming at sharing and integrating the knowledge between the members of an innovation platform to innovate. The interest of this approach is not based on the knowledge in itself but on "Who" detains it and "How" it is shared within the innovation platform. Finally, two elements allowed to a better understandingof the knowledge sharing: the strategic management and the corporate culture. Our study on the innovation platforms shows that when there is a deliberate action to establish an initiativeof innovation based on the knowledge sharing, this action becomes crucialto the life of the organization as far as it can question its balance of power, arouses the enthusiasm of certain actors and the distrust of others. This thesis, with its three case studiesof innovation platforms, does not only ponder on the cultural level concerning the practices of knowledge sharing but also tacklesthe identity level. The praxis is the following one: the knowledge sharing between the members of the innovation platforms enhances the emergence of the innovations within the companies under study. In terms of the managerial contribution, we consider that the knowledge sharing within the innovation platforms represents anevolving strategic action for the innovation initiatives

Abstract (sommario):

This study has been conducted with Sirius International as a case company. The investigation has revolved around the weaknesses Sirius, along with the authors, have identified concerning the international collaboration and communication. It was later shown that these problems were based on a low sense of unity in the organization as a result of the lack of knowledge sharing, knowledge management, and spread of organization related information. It was decided to evaluate whether a corporate social network (CSN) could assist in these problems and if so, decide what system would be the most appropriate in regards to the internal needs and requirements at Sirius. The major challenges brought on with an implementation of a CSN, and how to face these, were investigated as a part of the evaluation whether a CSN would be appropriate for Sirius or not. The study showed that a CSN was an appropriate choice for Sirius in order to improve the international communication, collaboration, and unity. The most suitable choice was determined to be Yammer, as it best suited the internal requirements and needs. Along with these results, the largest challenge with an implementation and future use of the system was user acceptance and overall usage of the system. If the CSN is not used, none of the visions, goals, or purposes will be fulfilled.
Denna studie har gjorts med Sirius International som case-företag. Undersökningen har kretsat kring svagheterna som Sirius, tillsammans med författarna har identifierat kring det internationella samarbetet och kommunikationen. Det visade sig senare att dessa problem var grundade i en låg känsla av samhörighet i organisationen och att detta var ett resultat av den låga nivån av kunskapsspridning, kunskapshantering och spridning av organisationsrelaterad information. Beslutet togs att undersöka huruvida ett företags-baserat socialt nätverk kunde hjälpa vid dessa problem och, om fallet var sådant, komma fram till vilket socialt nätverk som skulle vara mest lämpat vid avseende på de interna behoven och kraven från Sirius. Vid undersökningen om huruvida ett socialt nätverk var lämpligt för Sirius gjordes också en undersökning för att identifiera de största utmaningarna med en implementation av ett socialt nätverk och hur dessa skall bemötas och övervinnas. Studien visade att ett företagsbaserat socialt nätverk var ett lämpligt val för att överkomma problemen i Sirius och förbättra den internationella kommunikationen, samarbetet och samhörigheten. Det lämpligaste sociala nätverket för Sirius blev Yammer som bäst täckte de interna behoven och kraven hos Sirius. Tillsammans med dessa resultat visade undersökningen att den största utmaningen med en implementation och framtida nyttjande av systemet var användaracceptans och generell användning av systemet. Om ett socialt nätverk inte används så kan inga av visionerna, målen eller syftena med systemet infrias.

Abstract (sommario):

Esta tese apresenta soluções para o gerenciamento e otimização de temperatura para sistemas de codificação de vídeo baseados nas características da aplicação e no conteúdo dos vídeos digitais. Diferente dos trabalhos estado-da-arte, as soluções propostas nesta tese focam em técnicas de gerenciamento de temperatura no nível da aplicação e características da aplicação codificação de vídeo e as propriedades dos vídeos digitais são explorados para desenvolver soluções termais para a codificação de vídeo com baixas perdas na qualidade de serviço das aplicações. Diversas análises são realizadas considerando a aplicação de codificação de vídeo para entender o comportamento da temperatura durante o processo de codificação para diferentes sequências de vídeo. Com base nos resultados das análises, soluções com diferentes abordagens são propostas para atenuar os efeitos da temperatura nos sistemas de codificação de vídeo. Gerenciamento de temperatura baseado nas características da aplicação para o padrão de codificação HEVC usa uma técnica de seleção de configuração em tempo de execução para manter a temperatura abaixo dos limites seguros de operação com bons resultados de qualidade de vídeo. Otimização de temperatura baseado em computação imprecisa usa aproximações baseadas em conteúdo para reduzir a temperatura de chips executando o HEVC. Um escalonador de tarefas que usa características da aplicação para guiar o escalonamento de threads focando na redução dos gradientes espaciais de temperatura que são resultantes do desbalanceamento natural de cargas entre as threads da aplicação. As soluções propostas são capazes de reduzir em até 10 ºC a temperatura do chip com perdas insignificantes na eficiência de compressão. Os resultados de qualidade objetiva (medida usando PSNR) são de 12 dBs até 20 dBs maiores quando comparados com trabalhos da literatura. Além disso, o escalonador de tarefas proposto é capaz de eliminar os gradientes espaciais de temperatura maiores que 5 ºC para arquitetura multi-cores. Como principal conclusão, esta tese demonstra que as técnicas de gerenciamento de temperatura que usam o conhecimento da aplicação de maneira conjunta com as propriedades dos vídeos digitais tem um alto potencial para melhorar os resultados de temperatura de sistemas de codificação de vídeo mantendo bons resultados de qualidade visual dos vídeos codificados.
This thesis presents application-driven temperature-aware solutions for next generation video coding systems, such as the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). Different from state-of-the-art works, the proposed solutions raise the abstraction of temperature management to the application-level, where video coding characteristics and video content properties are used to leverage thermal-aware solutions for video coding with low QoS (Quality of Service) degradation. Several video coding and temperature analyses are performed to understand the behavior of temperature when encoding different video sequences. Based on the analyses results, different approaches are proposed to mitigate the temperature effects on video coding systems. Application-driven temperature management for HEVC uses run-time encoder configuration selection to keep temperature under safe operational state while providing good visual quality results. Temperature optimization using approximate computing uses content-driven approximations to reduce the on-chip temperature of HEVC encoding. Application-driven temperature-aware scheduler leverages application-specific knowledge to guide a scheduling technique targeting reducing the spatial temperature gradients that are resulted from the unbalance workload nature of multi-threaded video coding application. The proposed solutions are able to provide up to 10 °C of chip temperature reduction with negligible compression efficiency loss. Besides, when compared with previous works the resulted objective video quality (PSNR) is from 12 dB up to 20 dB higher. Moreover, the proposed scheduler eliminates spatial temperature gradients greater than 5 ºC of multi-core architectures. As conclusion, this thesis demonstrates that leveraging application-specific knowledge and video content properties has a significant potential to improve temperature profiles of video coding systems while still keeping good quality results.

Abstract (sommario):

The financial sector, as we know it, is radically transforming. As a result of the European regulation PSD2, customers banking data is becoming available for third parties by APIs [Evry n.d]. The traditional banks are now being exposed to competition from FinTechs and BigTech [Evry 2017]. The transformation is on-going and to the tunes of to new technologies, new regulations and new customer demands [Tornjanski et al. 2015]. This study aimed to identify the nature and behavior of the trend leaders, Generation Y (18 to 30 years old), and in the context of open banking, diagnose the transformation of banking services to meet new digital needs.To achieve this, a sequential embedded explanatory methodology was applied. The quantitative phase, identified and generalized the behaviors of Generation Y. The qualitative phase was exploratory, where multiple focus groups (38 individuals) developed the future banking services they request and want. This was analyzed based on Business Model Canvas [Osterwalder and Pigneur 2010] and a new service development framework for customer co-creation [Ozdemir, Trott, and Hoecht 2007]. The results imply that Generation Y, abide to be courted on their conditions and on-demand. They request a further expansion of the banks operational context, to supply with open banking platforms including both financial- and non-financial services. Hence, to meet these requests and remain the primary financial service provider the future banking services most transform into becoming digitally personalized and to seamlessly assist in everyday life.
Finanssektorn, som vi känner till den, förändras radikalt. Som ett resultat av den europeiska förordningen PSD2 blir kundernas bankdata tillgängliga för tredjepartsaktörer via API:er [Evry n.d]. De traditionella bankerna utsätts nu för konkurrens från FinTechs och BigTechs [Evry 2017]. Transformationen pågår och möjliggör för ny teknik, nya regler och nya kundkrav [Tornjanski et al. 2015]. Denna studie syftar till att identifiera trendledarna, Generation Ys (18 till 30 år) natur och beteenden, och inom ramen för open banking, diagnostisera omvandlingen av banktjänsterför att möta nya digitala behov. För att uppnå detta tillämpades en sekventiell inbäddad förklarande metodik. Den kvantitativa fasen identifierade och generaliserade Generations Y: s beteende. Den kvalitativa fasen var undersökande, där flera fokusgrupper (38 individer) utvecklade de framtida banktjänster som de efterfrågar och vill ha. Detta analyserades utifrån Business Model Canvas [Osterwalder and Pigneur 2010] och ett ramverk för utveckling av ny tjänster genom kundsamverkan [Ozdemir, Trott, and Hoecht 2007]. Resultaten påvisar att Generation Y förväntar sig att bli betjänade på sina villkor och begäran. De efterfrågar en framtida expansion av bankernas operativa kontext, till att förmedla öppna plattformar som inkluderar både finansiella och icke-finansiella tjänster. För att möta efterfrågan och förbli den primära finansiella tjänsteleverantören, måste de framtida banktjänsterna transformeras till att bli mer digitala och personanpassade hjälpmedel i vardagen.

Abstract (sommario):

Mothers around the world experience preventable medical complications during labor and delivery that can lead to maternal and newborn mortality. In addition, some expectant mothers can experience abuse, neglect, and discrimination from attending midwives. This lack of quality care has more connection to maternal mortality than lack of access to health services itself, and it is shown that the most effective way to improve care is through training and continuous education of the midwife, the primary obstetric care-giver. Laerdal Global Health [LGH], was collaborated with in this thesis, a not-for-profit company whose work is dedicated to saving the lives of mothers and newborns in low income regions, through high-impact, low-cost solutions involving educational materials and training programs for midwives. The aim of the partnership with LGH was to support competency development for labor management, with a focus on continuous training and education for midwives in Tanzania, sub Saharan Africa. Continuous training is on-going education of midwives through various methods of training and learning, with the goal of keeping skill sets current and evolving with best practice knowledge. Around the world, as well as in in sub Saharan Africa, medical systems can be stressed by a range of factors, including lack of resources and lack experienced midwives, which leads to challenges to follow standardized obstetric guidelines and an over-burdening workload for the midwife. (LGH, 2019). There is also a high frequency of midwife turnover within clinics and hospitals, making it difficult to train a fluctuating staff of varying competencies and knowledge sets. (LGH, 2019). The net effect of these challenges and beyond, made it imperative to address how midwives could be supported in their efforts to engage in continuous education and training. To facilitate and support continuous education, a hybrid chat and professional education platform, Rio, was created, powered by social interaction, knowledge exchange, and democratization of information. This platform’s aim was to give form and body to existing digital and social behaviors, and midwives’ continuous education efforts, something that comes in many shapes and sizes, and levels of tangibility. A proposal in the digital space was determined to be optimal due to its ability to increase access to information, and its adaptability to user needs and environments. Rio also challenges the ubiquitous nature of WhatsApp in the medical context by addressing and rethinking the generation, use, and storage of patient data. In tandem, Rio maintains the successful social platform use patterns, while utilizing these traits to propel and facilitate professional education and knowledge exchange.

Abstract (sommario):

A design department in the company Sandvik AB in Kista, Stockholm, has built a web-based platform for knowledge sharing that allows the employees to share knowledge, regardless of their role and position in the hierarchical structure of the organization. The web-based platform gathers disseminated information and provides a way of finding needed information in an easy way and thus enables increasing productivity and efficiency of the employees. The purpose of the research was to find out what the potential users find encouraging and motivating in order to use a web-based platform for knowledge sharing and a functionality for performance measurement. Compared to what technically is possible today, there is lack of transparency in the company. The knowledge that exists within the company is dispersed and difficult to access for the employees in the organization. By gathering the knowledge and information and enabling the employees to share knowledge, they could potentially increase their performance of work assignments. The problem that this report addresses is that currently there are not good enough ways of measuring and keeping track of the performance of work assignments or routines in some departments in the company. The qualitative method of semi-structured interviews has been used for gathering data in this research. The data have been analyzed with the method of content analysis. The result of the research is that there are several aspects that need to be considered when encouraging and motivating users to share knowledge in a web-based platform for knowledge sharing and to use it as a tool for performance measurement. The main aspects identified in this research are corporate culture, choice of performance measures, managers’ responsibility, visibility and usage of the performance data and availability of the web-based platform. These aspects concern the attitude of the company and how to encourage and motivate the users to want to use the web-based platform.

Thesis (MEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2003.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Rapid Product Development Division (RPD) of the Global Competitiveness Centre (GCC) identified the need to automate and integrate their organisational business processes a nd to share common data and practices a cross the entire enterprise in a real-time environment. Different software applications such as Microsoft" Excel, Microsoft" Access, the University's Financial System and others, are used to complete a single project. A system was therefore needed to provide the capabilities to integrate all of these applications into one workable system. The most perceived technology to create such an environment, namely Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), was found to be too sophisticated and expensive. The Knowledge Management Software Solution, called EDEN™, was identified as the most appropriate technology that could fulfil the needs of the RPD. Different modern management approaches, such as Theory of Constraints (TOC) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and process modelling tools were combined to build three roadmaps on the EDEN™ (Enterprise Design Navigator) platform to provide an enterprise wide business solution. A roadmap will aid as a guide that leads the user through a series of steps in order to create an understanding of the methods to be used when starting a new project or product design. The three roadmaps developed are Project Management, Product Development and Business Functions. The Project Management Roadmap was developed because all the RPD's work for clients is managed in the form of a project. This Roadmap should provide the necessary guidance and support to manage any project. The most important processes of the RPD are without doubt the product development processes. The Product Development Roadmap was developed with detailed procedures to assist with any product design. The business functions of the RPD are functions, such as finance and management information, that support the organisation's operations and the project management processes. The Business Functions identified for the RPD was combined into the Business Functions Roadmap. The main 0 bjective 0ft he thesis was toi ntegrate the business p rocesses a nd a II the software applications into one workable system and to share common data in a real-time environment. This was successfully accomplished by making use of the roadmaps and of the EDEN™ Environment.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die Rapid Product Development Division (RPD) van die Global Competitiveness Centre (GCC) het die nood om hul besigheid prosesse te outomatiseer en te integreer geïdentifiseer asook om hul data en beste praktyke met die hele besigheid te deel in 'n "real-time" omgewing. Verskillende sagteware toepassings soos Microsoft" Excel, Microsoft" Access, die Universiteit se Finansiële Sisteem en ander, word gebruik om een projek uit te voer. 'n Sisteem was dus benodig om al hierdie verskillende sagteware toepassings in een werkbare sisteem te integreer. Die mees toepasbare tegnologie om so 'n omgewing te skep, genaamd "Enterprise Resource Planning" (ERP), was gevind as te duur en te kompleks. Die "Knowledge Management Software Solution", genaamd EDEN™, was geïdentifiseer as die mees toepasbare tegnologie. Verskillende moderne bestuur benaderings, soos ''Theory of Constraints" (TOC) en "Customer Relationship Management" (CRM), asook proses modelleer tegnieke was gesamentlik gebruik 0m drie" road maps" te b ou op te EDEN™ platform. A" roadmap" dien as 'n riglyn wat die gebruikers sal ly deur 'n reeks van stappe met die doelom 'n beter verstaanbaarheid te kry van die tegnieke wat gebruik word wanneer 'n nuwe projek begin word. Die drie "Road maps" is Projekbestuur, Produk Ontwikkeling en Besigheid Funksies. Die Projekbestuur "Road map" was ontwikkelomdat alle werk wat gedoen word deur die RPD bestuur word in die vorm van 'n projek. Hierdie "Roadmap" sal die nodige leiding en ondersteuning bied vir die bestuur van enige projek. Die belangrikste prosesse van die RPD is sonder twyfel die produk ontwikkeling prosesse. Die Produk Ontwikkelings "Roadmap" is ontwikkel met gedetailleerde prosedures om bystand te bied met enige nuwe produk ontwikkeling. Die besigheid funksies van die RPD is funksies, soos finansies en informasie bestuur, wat ondersteuning bied aan die besigheid se operasionele en projekbestuur prosesse. Die geïdentifiseerde besigheid prosesse van die RPD was gekombineer om die Besigheid Funksies "Road map" te ontwikel. Die hoof doel van die tesis was om die besigheid prosesse en al die sagteware toepassing te integreer in een werkbare sisteem asook om data te deel in 'n "real-time" omgewing. Dit was suksesvol bereik deur gebruik te maak van die "roadrnaps" en die EDEN™ omgewing.

Abstract (sommario):

Sustainable energy services aim to meet the energy demands and to improve the living standards of rural communities with the utilization of sustainable energy technologies. Such services are becoming increasingly important due to the reduction of traditional energy resources and the ongoing increase in the demands. The demands are mainly due to the growth of population, domestic consumptions and industrial uses. In addition, increasing awareness of issues such as global warming, carbon emission, peak oil and the need for a sustainable environment has kindled keen interests in sustainable energy around the world. Many projects on sustainable energy services have been launched and particularly in developing countries. In most areas, at least one type of sustainable energy resources is available. In the case of Thailand, in additional to resources such as solar and wind, there are other sustainable energy resources in the forms of biomass and waste residue from agricultural products. However, there exist practical problems hindering the success of many sustainable energy projects. Two key reasons are the lack of in depth knowledge regarding the sustainable energy systems among the local users, and the limited budgets for planning, research and development. Therefore, the need to promote better understanding of sustainable energy technologies is necessary in order to gain better utilization of the energy services and acceptance by the community. One possible solution is the use of a Knowledge Management System (KMS). Based on advanced Information and Communication Technology (ICT), the integration of knowledge management and web technologies has enabled KMS to be developed as an effective tool for the sharing, management and dissemination of valuable knowledge on any particular subject. This combination has the potential to promote the knowledge and initiate relevant activities thereby enabling the acquisition and management of diverse types of information and data. Typical functions and services which could be provided are: checking updated information on sustainable energy resources around a particular area; teaching of sustainable energy systems development and maintenance processes; sharing of best practices and lessons learnedetc. With the availability of the internet, a Web-based KMS will be a valuable channel for the gathering, sharing, extracting and dissemination of knowledge about the sustainable energy services for the Thai communities. This thesis presents the research and development of a knowledge management (KM) platform for sustainable energy technologies. The system is implemented with web GIS server-side application and it is installed at the School of Renewable Energy Technology, Naresuan University, Phitsanulok, Thailand. To assess the effectiveness of the developed system, surveys in the form of pre-questionnaires and post-questionnaires from the users are used. Such information is used to determine the effectiveness of the system and to measure the improvement of the participants knowledge on the subject. There are three groups of participants involved in this study: local government administrators, researchers and general users. The overall results of the questionnaires reveal that the participants are satisfied with the performance of the KM platform. The results also indicated that the KM platform provides adequate knowledge on the subject and it has a high level of user friendliness. It was found that the participants knowledge is also increased and the increase is in proportion to the time they engaged with the KM platform. A linear regression analysis of the researchers and local government administrators has shown that the increment of the participants knowledge has a linear relationship with the learning period on the KM platform with statistical significance. Findings from this study can be used as a guideline and for further development on improving the local Thai communities knowledge on sustainable energy technologies.

Abstract (sommario):

abstract: Knowledge Management Systems have been actively promoted for decades within organizations but have frequently failed to be used. Recently, deployments of enterprise social networking platforms used for knowledge management have become commonplace. These platforms help harness the knowledge of workers by serving as repositories of knowledge as well as directories of knowledge holders. As with prior systems, a key challenge faced by organizations is how to initiate and maintain a minimum level of knowledge contributions. Existing IS literature on the causes of knowledge contributions shows conflicting findings. This work suggests that human factors, social networking platform technology and community factors, and environments internal to organizations are each necessary for understanding the causes of knowledge contributions. This work presents three studies that: 1) develop a framework for the analysis of knowledge contributions via social networking platforms, 2) demonstrate the impacts of different incentives and managerial controls, and 3) extend our understanding of group-level influences within organizations. With a better understanding of what drives knowledge contributions in a social networking platform used in organizations, we are better prepared as researchers to engage in research that reduces inconsistencies in the knowledge management literature, as well as more able to assist practitioners in designing optimal conditions for knowledge sharing within organizations.

The media industries in Taiwan are facing furious competition in both product market and advertisement market due to the convergence of digital media and ambiguity of government policy. Composed of data, information and knowledge, the media itself can be replicated and transferred among different media through systematic organizing and value-adding. Therefore, after being digitalized, it is more suitable for knowledge economy management than other manufacturing or service industries. This research attempts to investigate the media industry, a subset of the knowledge industry: how to utilize existing content to increase the competitiveness by sharing the knowledge, inspiring the creativity within organization, adding value to content production and expanding the content production scale. In this research, we use in-depth interviews and real case studies to analyze the execution of the cross media integration in United Daily News Group, China Times Group, and Eastern Multimedia Group and how these companies share data, information and knowledge through digitalized platforms and corporate to produce content. Our research found that: 1. The digitalized contents can quickly stream though network platforms and effectively shorten the news production processes. 2. Except the “file transformation” of internet media, the idea of “single production, multiple usage” in cross media platform is difficult to realize. However, it has been widely implemented on similar media platforms by using editing system or “Macro Platform”. 3. The most executable method in production processes in cross media platforms are “single content, compound processes, multiple production, multi-dimensional service”. 4. The most common is the improvement of production efficiency in the knowledge sharing and innovation value adding by creating differently types of contents with the data accumulated in news topics. 5. The cross media platform can mostly only achieve information sharing. The knowledge sharing is more typically accomplished by meetings. The flow of people within the group from different media also helps the communication and sharing of production culture. 6. Wih a strict standard, current so-called cross-media digital platform is just a portal web. Through different sub-system existed in each media, the knowledge sharing could be performed. 7. There isn’t official organization or substantial project to deploy systematical knowledge management activities within most media group. In the future, it’s necessary to build up knowledge share system to inspire creativity and knowledge value adding in order to promote competition.

With the development of Web 2.0, it brings the concept of collecting intelligence and creativity, and makes knowledge sharing more efficient. When knowledge sharing is growing, the content of knowledge gradually become more professional, and it also makes people to focus on their own knowledges. if the knowledge can not to be protected on the internet, people may not intent to share their knowledge. However, with the Creative Commons proposed, it changes the protection of copyright between “All rights reserved” and “No rights reserved”. It makes the sharing of knowledge to be protected, which promotes to people more willing to share knowledge. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the integration of the Creative Commons with Web 2.0 sharing platform for creating and sharing picture activities, and whether affect students’ sharing intention and performance or not. The results showed that when students trust the effectiveness of this site, they may depend on the site’s tools, and then they don’t want to be helped by other people, which contribute to low sharing intentions. Relatively, the other students are willing to share their own pictures, because they trust people’s ability. In the community-related outcome expectation, it effects to sharing intention directly from students’ feedbacks. Finally, students can realize Creative Commons license through strategic sharing activity, and they prefer to share pictures to others even if they ever didn’t .

Abstract (sommario):

This research aims to provide a better understanding on how firms stimulate knowledge sharing through the utilization of collaboration tools, in particular Emergent Social Software Platforms (ESSPs). It focuses on the distinctive applications of ESSPs and on the initiatives contributing to maximize its advantages. In the first part of the research, I have itemized all types of existing collaboration tools and classify them in different categories according to their capabilities, objectives and according to their faculty for promoting knowledge sharing. In the second part, and based on an exploratory case study at Cisco Systems, I have identified the main applications of an existing enterprise social software platform named Webex Social. By combining a qualitative and quantitative approach, as well as combining data collected from survey’s results and from the analysis of the company’s documents, I am expecting to maximize the outcome of this investigation and reduce the risk of bias. Although effects cannot be universalized based on one single case study, some utilization patterns have been underlined from the data collected and potential trends in managing knowledge have been observed. The results of the research have also enabled identifying most of the constraints experienced by the users of the firm’s social software platform. Utterly, this research should provide a primary framework for firms planning to create or implement a social software platform and for firms willing to increase adoption levels and to promote the overall participation of users. It highlights the common traps that should be avoided by developers when designing a social software platform and the capabilities that it should inherently carry to support an effective knowledge management strategy.

Abstract (sommario):

The aim of this research is to shed more light on an aspect identified as a gap in knowledge in the literature; the use of a social networking service as knowledge sharing platform. More specifically, this research sets out to establish if the social networking service Twitter could be used as knowledge-sharing platform in small South African businesses in the Western Cape. A mixed method research design is used. This includes gathering data through questionnaires as well as conducting semi-structured interviews for case study participants. The sample comprises 122 questionnaire participants together with 14 semi-structured interview participants across three small businesses located in the Western Cape Province. Although it is apparent from the study conducted that small businesses are not yet willing to forego traditional platforms such as Email to use Twitter exclusively as a knowledge sharing tool, the researcher proposes a case for using Twitter, which he believes, could take the most advantage of the functions Twitter brings to a small business operation.

Abstract (sommario):

This study presents a conceptual and theoretical framework for peace building and restorative action in the Arctic Barents Region where the Sami of the Scandinavian region live. Based on Johan Galtung´s theory of peace, the study approaches the issue of peace building and restorative action by considering the history of colonialism and the meaningful lessons drawn from it as a pedagogic field and with human development as the goal. Central to this imperative is the issue of cognitive justice. The study explores the peace potential in including indigenous knowledge systems and the ethics embedded in them in the developmental discourse going forward. The word “ethics” is explored within this imperative, with the study arguing that developing an ethical rationality compatible with the goal of peace and human development in this context is not primarily about the mastering of rules and principles or adjusting to modernity´s mores but about something far more fundamental, namely, the work of re-establishing the esteem for the Other – the very fundamental condition of human community – in a context in which respect for the intrinsic value, dignity and individual autonomy of others and therein their active participation in the world, are under severe strain. The remote space that is devoted to this fundamental relation with the Other in today's leading moral-philosophical discourse thus stresses the need to open up new “cognitive spaces” so that wisdom may emanate more freely from non-western traditions in order to expand the range of ethical rationality. This argument is supported by hermeneutical theory, especially that of Gadamer, the core of which is that communicative acknowledgement of the Other must be based exclusively on the Other’s premises, where the world of the Other is prioritised as the key for understanding oneself. The arbitrative lesson of hermeneutics is that true comprehension is not possible by evading the Other. It is at this point that Levinas’ analysis of the “face” becomes central: The Other is experienced “face-to-face”, meaning “without horizons” and refers to an experience before my will and freedom and which implies that I transcend myself when I acknowledge my responsibility for my Self as the responsibility for the Other. The study concludes that building peace by restoring indigenous systems of trust and hospitality is vital in any attempt to cope with current difficulties and for moving forward in a restorative paradigm.

Thesis Title: Group Knowledge Sharing Differs in Discrepancy of Knowledge Platform. Author: chia wu, Lin Abstract: Knowledge is power, and sharing knowledge is sharing power, in the same way, creating knowledge is creating advantages of competition. In brief, knowledge sharing and knowledge creating play so important roles for business. In your opinion, what kinds of channels of communication are helpful for business to process knowledge sharing and knowledge creating? Recently, due to development of information technology, many businesses try to construct knowledge sharing system to achieve the purpose of extending knowledge. Businesses also organize groups to be responsible for accomplishing missions. During the period of group running, knowledge will be aroused and shared when the members of group discuss and Brian-storm by face-to-face. Knowledge exists in individual’s brain, so business must construct communication channels or platforms to stimulate people sharing knowledge voluntarily. Therefore, does the process of sharing and creating knowledge have any different performance when it plays in the different platforms? And what kind of factors can help people to share their own knowledge voluntarily? This study adopted experimental simulation method to random assign 40 participators into 4 groups. This study indicates: 1.“face-to –face platform” is more easier to create knowledge than “virtual platform”.2. Reactions between participators are more important than differences of “virtual platform” and “face-to –face platform” to improve knowledge management performance.3.In experts’ opinions, the results of discussion are almost in the same performance between “virtual platform” and “face-to –face platform”. Key word: Knowledge Management, Virtual Community, Knowledge Sharing, Knowledge Creating.

The goal of this study, which the Executive Yuan personnel staffs are for the study target, is aimed to understand the acceptance status of the knowledge-sharing platform, as well as the influence factors of the knowledge-sharing behavior for the personnel staffs under the virtually practice community environment. First of all, in order to understand the acceptance status of the knowledge-sharing platform for the study target, Davis’s Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is adapted as the foundation to understand the opinions of the usefulness and the suitability of the knowledge-sharing platform for the personnel staffs, as well as those whether some conspicuous differences occur at the knowledge-sharing behavior or not. Next, in order to understand the influence factors of the knowledge-sharing behavior for the study target under the virtually practice community environment, Ajzen’s Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is adapted as the foundation to understand the influence factors of the attitude, subjected norms, perceived behavioral control, etc, of the knowledge-sharing for the personnel staffs, as well as those whether some conspicuous differences occur at the knowledge-sharing behavior or not. After this study, the result is described as follows. 1. High correlation appears on the perceived usefulness and the perceived suitability with the knowledge-sharing attitude. 2. Moderate correlation appears between the perceived usefulness and the perceived suitability. 3. The correlation occurs among the knowledge-sharing attitude, the knowledge-sharing subjective norms, and the perceived behavioral control. 4. The correlation occurs among the perceived usefulness and the perceived easy of use. 5. No conspicuous influence occurs among the perceived usefulness, the perceived suitability, the knowledge-sharing attitude, the knowledge-sharing subjective norms, and the perceived behavioral control for knowledge-sharing behavior. Therefore, some suggestions are described in the following. 1. Since no conspicuous influence occurs at all aspects for actual knowledge-sharing behavior after this study, the aspect of the knowledge-sharing intention is suggested as a addition in order to understand whether some conspicuous differences appear for actual knowledge-sharing behavior. 2. Some knowledge, such as the popular merit assessment, the salary, etc, can be integrated as the knowledge objects pools, as well as can be provided for some systems, such as Wikipedia, on purpose of the creation and the diffusion of the knowledge widely.

The Taiwan government has been actively promoted the 4G broadband service due to the fact that the wide popularity of smart phones and 4G broadband have created a large number of mobile users. Today, smart devices have become an essential life accessory of urban people. In particular, the application of Internet of Things has been constantly implemented in smart cities, further enhancing the interaction between people and mobile devices. Among the mobile online services, the online video content has the most significant growth. In modern times, most people only have odd times in addition to studies or work, such as the time for taking the MRT, waiting for the bus, or the recess at school. In the past, many people would use such times to catch up on some sleep; but now, even more people would take out their phones to check their Facebook or play games to pass the time. We all know that odd times can also be used to create economic value. Nevertheless, how can the economic value of odd times fully be created by achieving the most effective use among all sorts of mobile messages? In this study, the current trend of online video with e-books will be used to develop a new profit model, allowing SMEs to create more economic value in such a highly competitive environment. Through the business knowledge diffusion platform, the old customers can be served with digital advertisements or e-manuals to open up new marketing channels, and the customer number and turnover of SMEs can be enhanced as well. In order to realize the real purpose of knowledge diffusion, this platform will be open for everyone to be online teachers or students. Teachers upload the learning resources in digital forms (videos, e-books) to the platform, and the platform provides a comprehensive directory management, interactive teaching, and the statistics of data to integrate the learning resources together. Therefore, students can learn in small fragments to make good use of odd times and achieve good learning results.

Information and communication technology has broken all boundaries between the entities, but also makes it easier to obtain network application services. Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 service model make greater network application service. Because of globalization and fast development of knowledge-based society, knowledge workers around the world need to be able to quickly grasp information and knowledge. Personal knowledge management has been gradually taking shape. In the development process of personal knowledge, the activity of virtual community network plays a very important role. The strength of community in the virtual network is very amazing. Through the application of network platform, community members naturally share their specialized knowledge and skills. By the knowledge power of groups, individuals can improve their knowledge in breadth and depth. In the process of virtual community activities, the better knowledge platform will make better knowledge sharing. The personal knowledge management platform provides not only information, but also communication channels for virtual community. The generation of knowledge needs many assumptions and overthrows to reach a conclusion. Such a communication channel in the current personal knowledge management platform seems to lack. So this study starts from community activities and personal knowledge management platform. Finally this study implements a network-based personal knowledge management platform, which enhances the process of knowledge generation.

The cyber community has played an important role for knowledge sharing in internet. By posting articles in the cyber community, the members can share knowledge with each other directly and conveniently. However, due to the community members are not professional enough, the qualities of the articles in the cyber community are not all good. Therefore, the articles evaluation mechanism is widely applied in cyber communities, and members can refer to the evaluation score before they want to read an article. In the cyber community, people would like to ask someone to help to solve some problems. It is valuable that if the community platform could help to identify who the real expert is in a specific domain. This mechanism would help to enhance the effectiveness of knowledge sharing in cyber community. In this research, we propose a Volumetric ExpertRank algorithm to indentify the real expert in the cyber community automatically. The algorithm is designed based on the articles evaluation information, volumes of articles, and PageRank algorithm. The research results show that our algorithm would be helpful to indentify expert accurately in the cyber community.
