A graph is the most common method of visualizing a semantic web. However, when dealing with large and complex semantic webs, existing systems face challenges such as slow loading times and too much information being displayed on the screen. This paper introduces a Multimodal Semantic Browser...

Knowledge communication is an essential mechanism to facilitate intra- and interorganizational knowledge transfer. In order to improve the efficiency of knowledge communication, organizations need to pay particular attention to the clarity of conveyed knowledge in order not to create confusion,...

As pointed out by several scholars, inter-organizational collaboration is an important vehicle for knowledge creation. But the process of integrating knowledge across organizational boundaries entails great complexity. In this paper, we argue that visualizing knowledge in interorganizational...

Technological change and high competitiveness are essential for organisations in today’s fast-paced society. Information and knowledge assets thus need to be current and easily accessible. With implementing core knowledge processes such as identification and accumulation, msg systems ag - a...

More than ever, the Web is a space of social interaction. Recent trends reveal that Internet users spend more time interacting within online communities than in checking and replying to e-mail. Online communities and institutions create new spaces for interaction, but also open new avenues for...

The paper explores the application of Web 2.0 technologies in the engineering product development domain. Growing on data collected from a number of industrial development projects, related to several different products in various industry segments, the paper analyses the dichotomy between the...

Spatial Hypertext Wiki (ShyWiki) is a wiki which represents knowledge using notes that are spatially distributed in wiki pages and have some visual characteristics such as colour, size, or font type. Spatial and visual characteristics are important in a wiki to improve human comprehension,...

One of the core challenges for current landscape of ontology based research is to develop efficient ontology merging algorithms which can resolve the mismatches with no or minimum human intervention, and generate automatic global merged ontology on-the-fly to fulfil the needs of automated...

Semantic web provides virtual communities that enable intelligent interaction between software agents and people due to availability of standard open ontologies. But, as the semantic web is gaining much popularity, there is a massive growth seen in the ontology development which poses new...

Ontology evaluation is an integral part of the ontology development process. Errors in ontology create serious problems for the information system based on it. To our surprise, the existing systems are unable to identify most of the errors. We evaluate some well known ontologies against the...
