CALL FOR PAPERS

Special issue of Journal of Universal Computer Science (SCIE)

on Knowledge repository, knowledge distribution, and knowledge networks evolving on the Internet

Submission of full paper: 31 January, 2009

The Internet has created an interconnected world in which users can easily exchange information, process tasks collaboratively, and form communities to achieve efficiency and improve performance. The Internet contains more than 10 billion text pages indexed, forming millions and millions of networks with specific purposes. In this situation, this special issue aims to foretell how the Internet plays a role of knowledge networks in the near future.

The Internet is able to connect knowledge, knowledge holders, knowledge bases, and knowledge systems of various kinds of organizations, and distribute that knowledge to other organizations, people, and locations. This new possibility of the Internet goes beyond the traditional information storage and distribution ability. Furthermore the Internet evolving to the knowledge networks (e.g., networks for teaching service, people acquaintance, hi-tech product design, or corporate knowledge), possesses powerful implications of knowledge internationalization of businesses, governments, and customers in the whole world.

This special issue of JUCS seeks original articles on "The Internet as a knowledge repository, distribution channel, and knowledge network." Rather than project plans or purely reflective or vision papers, we prefer case studies of implemented systems or descriptions of innovative technologies, highlighting actual usage results. Reflecting those results to the theoretical findings and possible future research in information systems, computer systems, knowledge management, organizational design, organizational learning, social networks, sociology, management science, and other research areas, will ideally have informed both current and future business practice and theories.

We welcome papers from a range of perspectives. Potential topics include:

Knowledge repository and distribution in the Internet Knowledge management systems in the Internet People knowledge and social networking Personal knowledge management facilitated by the Internet Knowledge creation in the Internet Knowledge networks on the Internet Web search on the knowledge networks Knowledge management in the deep web High density knowledge transfer over wide area networks Tools for creating knowledge networks Knowledge-usage applications on the Internet Performance evaluation of knowledge networks Assessment of knowledge management applications Shortcomings of current Internet technologies for efficient knowledge management Sociological approaches for evaluation methods
