Fact sheet

Next generation knowledge management Integrated Project - 3 years, €12M 12 partners - BT coordinator Research challenges

– marrying formal and informal knowledge representation – using context to inhibit information overload – learning and using knowledge processes

Case studies

– engineering, consultancy, telecoms

Formal & informal

Semantic Technologies

  • need to create metadata

Folksonomies

  • informal knowledge representation

prevents reasoning

How do we combine formal & informal?

slide-6
SLIDE 6

User context

Information wealth Overload & constant task-switching

Context-driven solutions

  • learning & using context
  • understanding priorities
slide-7

Knowledge processes

Knowledge processes How do we learn, describe, & facilitate dynamic knowledge processes? informal dynamic

Interrupts:

  • E-mail (multiple accounts)
  • Voice mail
  • Schedule
  • Task list
  • IM
  • SMS
  • News items
  • Stock market
  • Weather
  • Security alarm
  • Bank alerts
  • Travel news
  • Media

Context:

  • Interest profile
  • Device type
  • Connectivity
  • Time, date, location
  • Current tasks
  • Community…

ACTIVE Technology

Features

  • Filtering information
  • Learning your interests
  • Learning your knowledge processes
  • Modelling your context
  • Learning your priorities

Knowledge Workspace:

  • Prioritisation of interrupts
  • Automated support for

knowledge processes

  • Concise, timely, relevant

information

  • Context and device sensitive

The Knowledge Workspace

slide-9
SLIDE 9

In the knowledge workspace

Effortless sharing Everything in context

  • relevant knowledge proactively presented
  • only higher priority interrupts permitted

A helping hand through knowledge processes

Success factors

Timely research challenges – displaying understanding of work elsewhere – clearly linked to development and to case studies

– linked to scenarios

Realistic case studies – industrial strength Usability and business benefits programme Strong exploitation routes

All clearly linked together

e.g. scenarios link research challenges to usage

Beyond ACTIVE

Large, complex projects and processes e.g. building an airport, large software systems

  • semantics in project control & management
  • scaling to large teams with complex interactions

Trust and security in social computing

  • role of semantics in tracking provenance of

information & specifying micro-level security policies
