Welcome to the
ECAI'2006
Workshop on
Knowledge Management and Organizational Memories
Riva del Garda, Italy, August 28 or
29, 2006
Call for papers:
Knowledge Management (KM) is one of the key progress factors in
organizations. It aims at capturing explicit and tacit knowledge
of an organization in order to facilitate the access, sharing, and
reuse of that knowledge as well as creation of new knowledge and
organizational learning. KM must be guided by a strategic vision to
fulfill its primary organizational objectives: improving knowledge
sharing and cooperative work inside the organization; disseminating
best practices; improving relationships with the external world;
preserving past knowledge of the organization for reuse; improving the
quality of projects and innovations; anticipating the evolution of the
external environment; and preparing for unexpected events and managing
urgency and crisis situations.
One approach for KM consists of building a corporate memory or
organizational memory (OM). Several techniques can be considered,
according to the type of organization, its needs and its culture:
knowledge-based approaches, document-based approaches, workflow-based
approaches, CBR-based approaches, CSCW and cooperative approaches,
ontology-based approaches, corporate Semantic Webs, Web-based
approaches, agent-based approaches, distributed OMs, etc.
Several scenarios of KM can be tackled through OMs: project memory,
skills management, communities of practice, strategic or technological
watch, e-learning, e-government, etc. The workshop aims at gathering
researchers from multiple disciplines, industrial participants and
students in order to discuss models, methodologies, techniques and
application dealing with these scenarios and approaches.
Papers are welcome in any area concerning knowledge management.
Examples of interesting topics are:
