"This book connects knowledge management theory to knowledge management practice, allowing the empirical research presented to resolve challenges. It provides a better understanding of the benefits and limitations of various socio-technical knowledge management initiatives, especially in the realm of social-oriented knowledge culture, communities, initiatives and rewards, measurement, technology-oriented knowledge repositories, modeling, rating, alerting, and discovery systems"--Provided by publisher.

There has been an explosive growth in multimedia computing, communication and applications. This title summarizes recent research topics, focusing on intelligent content-based information retrieval and virtual world, quality-of-services of multimedia data and intelligent agents.

The 2001 International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR 2001, www.iccbr.org/iccbr01), the fourth in the biennial ICCBR series (1995 in Sesimbra, Portugal; 1997 in Providence, Rhode Island (USA); 1999 in Seeon, Germany), was held during 30 July – 2 August 2001 in Vancouver, Canada. ICCBR is the premier international forum for researchers and practitioners of case based reasoning (CBR). The objectives of this meeting were to nurture significant, relevant advances made in this field (both in research and application), communicate them among all attendees, inspire future advances, and continue to support the vision that CBR is a valuable process in many research disciplines, both computational and otherwise. ICCBR 2001 was the first ICCBR meeting held on the Pacific coast, and we used the setting of beautiful Vancouver as an opportunity to enhance participation from the Pacific Rim communities, which contributed 28% of the submissions. During this meeting, we were fortunate to host invited talks by Ralph Bergmann, Ken Forbus, Jaiwei Han, Ramon López de Mántaras, and Manuela Veloso. Their contributions ensured a stimulating meeting; we thank them all.

How can the Internet and world wide web improve my long-term competitive advantage? This book helps answer this question by providing a better understanding of the technologies, their potential applications and the ways they can be used to add value for customers, support new strategies, and improve existing operations. It is not just about e-commerce but the broader theme of e-business which affects products, business processes, strategies, and relationships with customers, suppliers, distributors and competitors. To cover future trends, the editors have collected papers from authors operating at the frontiers of the developments so the reader can more appreciate the directions in which these technologies are heading. The resulting 165 essays have been collated into ten sections, which have been grouped in three parts: key issues, applications areas and applications, tools and technologies. A business rarely makes radical changes but is constantly making adjustments to circumstances. Businesses must now adapt to the global implications of the Internet and world wide web. This book hopes to aid awareness of the implications so that the changes are managed wisely.

The book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Knowledge Management and Acquisition for Smart Systems and Services, held in Daegue, Korea in August 2010 in conjunction with the Pacific Rim International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, PRICAI 2010. The 26 revised full papers were selected from 94 submissions and are organized in topical sections on Machine Learning, Data Mining, Knowledge Engineering & Ontology, Incremental Knowledge Acquisition, KA Applications in Internet and Mobile Computing and KA Applications in Multimedia and Games.

This book features a selection of extended papers presented at the 6th IFIP WG 12.6 International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Knowledge Management, AI4KM 2018, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in July 2018, in the framework of the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, IJCAI 2018. The 11 revised and extended papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this volume. They present new research and innovative aspects in the field of knowledge management such as machine learning, knowledge models, KM and Web, knowledge capturing and learning, and KM and AI intersections.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and knowledge management can create innovative digital solutions and business opportunities in Asia from circular and green economies to technological disruption, innovation, and smart cities. It is essential to understand the impact and importance of AI and knowledge management within the digital economy for future development and for fostering the best practices within 21st century businesses. The Handbook of Research on Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Management in Asia’s Digital Economy offers conceptual frameworks, empirical studies, and case studies that help to understand the latest developments in artificial intelligence and knowledge management, as well as its potential for digital transformation and business opportunities in Asia. Covering topics such as augmented reality. Convolutional neural networks, and digital transformation, this major reference work generates enriching debate on the challenges and opportunities for economic growth and inclusion in the region among business executives and leaders, IT managers, policymakers, government officials, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
