Minitrack: Creation and Appropriation of Knowledge Systems (http://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-52/knowledge-innovation-and-entrepreneurial-s...) Track: Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems
Minitrack description:
The objective of this minitrack is to contribute to the body of knowledge that helps scholars and practitioners increase their collective understanding of 1. how knowledge systems are planned, designed, constructed, implemented, used, evaluated, supported, upgraded, and evolved; 2. how knowledge systems impact the context in which they are embedded; and 3. the human behaviors reflected within and induced through both (1) and (2) (adapted from Benbasat and Zmud 2003).
By knowledge system, we mean a system in which human participants and/or machines perform work (processes and activities) related to the creation, retention, transfer and/or application of knowledge using information, technology, and other resources to produce informational products and/or services for internal or external customers (adapted from Alter 2008). Such systems may include, but are not limited to, knowledge management systems, decision systems, social media, expert systems, machine learning systems, and other AI systems as well as any other IT-enabled knowledge management processes.
We welcome both design science and design theory research in knowledge systems as well as behavioral research related to the appropriation of knowledge systems in order to span the entire lifecycle of knowledge systems.
Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the following: * Theoretical models, methodologies, tools as well as technological and managerial practices for planning, designing, constructing, implementing, using, evaluating, supporting and upgrading knowledge systems * Case studies focusing on the implementation of knowledge processes and technologies (e.g., virtual reality, social media, expert systems, data analytics, AI, machine learning, e-learning) * Systems design for social knowledge creation and use (e.g. social media system architectures) * Development of frameworks for classifying knowledge systems * Incorporating and/or integrating knowledge services and mashups, social media, Web 2.0, cloud computing, and/or ubiquitous technologies in knowledge systems * Appropriation and use of social media upon individual users, groups, businesses, and governments for knowledge management * Changing organizational cultures and structures through knowledge systems * Design, evaluation, and/or use of processes, semantic technologies, knowledge retrieval and representation methods, and/or systems to map, track and/or visualize social networks and/or work systems in order to facilitate knowledge creation and sharing and quick problem solving (e.g., when unexpected coordination breakdowns emerge) * Risks and challenges of knowledge systems for knowledge practices (e.g. information overload, technostress, and protection of information assets) * Design processes, representations, and/or kernel (reference) theories for co-designing and/or co-evolving work and knowledge systems * Human computer interaction in a knowledge system context * Issues in, limitations of and barriers to tacit knowledge management * Human behaviors reflected within human-machine structuration phenomena
