  1. Collaborative knowledge creation environment for supporting scientific communities Sas Mihindu University of Salford – Manchester UNITED KINGDOM Alenia Spazio S.p.A.

  2. Future Workspaces Research Centre • Aim • To conduct research to develop novel interactive spaces (physical and virtual) for creating new working environments which can enhance creativity, improve productivity, promote social interaction and support knowledge management within distributed organisations. • Key Research Themes • Knowledge Engineering for Future Workspaces • Future Collaborative Workspaces for Engineering Applications • Future Workspaces for Environmental Planning • Future Workspaces for Virtual Enterprises • Tele-Immersive Systems • Novel CAD Interfaces

  3. Agenda (15.00-15.20) • KM Framework - simplified view CoP-->SCoP + KMLC + SCLC =>CKC & Dissemination • Research Aim and Objectives • Methodology • What Tools available for CoP? • Knowledge Management • K Creation Process • An individual • State diagram - K RAID • A Group • K Aggregation Algorithm • Scientific Communication Process • Collaborative K Creation Opportunity available in designing KMI K Processing, Codification & Reuse Hierarchic Requirements model Shared facilities Shared Spaces Conceptual Design of CKC infrastructure Deployment strategy non-intrusive infrastructure Case study 1 Knowledge Management Infrastructure Case study 2 & 3 Scientific Communities Conclusion

  4. Requirement of an appropriate ICT Tool Knowledge Management Life Cycle Communities of Practice KMLC Application for SCoP Requirement of an appropriate ICT Tool CKC & Dissemination CoP SCop Suitable work environment for supporting Collaborative Knowledge Creation Define SCoP Application for SCoP Scientific Communities of Practice SCLC * Identified Gaps Scientific Communication Life Cycle KM Framework for Scientific Communities Simplified view (Mihindu)

  5. Research Aim The aim of this research is to investigate the design and implementation of a collaborative work environment which can facilitate collaborative knowledge creation within scientific communities. The utilisation of proposed collaborative work environment will improve the social interactions among the community members. Research Objectives The aim will be achieved through the following objectives.

  6. Summary of implemented research methodology (Mihindu)

  7. What tools for CoP? Knowledgebase Access to expertise E-learning Synchronise interactions Discussion groups Online communities Project spaces Knowledge worker’s desktop Market of community oriented technologies (Etienne Wenger, 2001)

  8. Repository / Capture Reuse / Utilisation Share / Codify Creation / Development Knowledge Creation Process Problem definition Prior Knowledge Analyse & Research Create & develop new knowledge & trail / experiment Disuses, Refine & Share Mass dissemination

  9. Knowledge aggregation of an individual P1 = Person Sk = Shared K pool of the organisation P1K = Person no.1’s pre-knowledge Knowledge creation activities = Any KC activities an individual involved (personally or within group environment) A1 = Received (or absorbed) knowledge from the K pool for completing K creation activities SkP1 = New knowledge to be shared during post knowledge creation activity Knowledge creation activities related knowledge aggregation (of an individual)

  10. Individual's KC State Diagram Internal K RAID Relaxation Absorption Integration Dissemination Spreading Codifying Sharing Relaxation Absorption Integration Dissemination Knowledge creation state diagram of an individual (Mihindu, 2007)

  11. Knowledge aggregation within individuals and the K-pool Pn = Person n Skn = Shared K pool of the organisation PnK = Person n’s pre-knowledge Knowledge creation activities = personally or within group environment An = Received (or absorbed) knowledge from the K pool for completing K creation activities SkPn = New knowledge to be shared during post knowledge creation activity Group knowledge creation activities and knowledge aggregation (Mihindu, 2007)

  12. KA algorithm (Mihindu)

  13. Collaborative Knowledge Creation through scientific communication process (adapted from Bo-Christer Björk, 2005)

  14. Processing, Codification and Reuse model Analyse Nature Influence Motivation Provide Opportunity Facilitate Reuse Storage Semantic index Share Decide Opportunity within KMI (Mihindu)

  15. Knowledge processing, Codification and reuse model (Mihindu)

  16. Hierarchic requirements model (Mihindu)

  17. Conceptual design of the proposed system (Mihindu)

  18. Virtualisation of system server components (Mihindu, 2007)

  19. KB repository server RBAC public private admin Tools search capture / store development import / export project mgt web access wiki knowledge categories NEWS feed Functions of the Collaborative Knowledge Management System (Mihindu, 2006) Case study I

  20. CKC Infrastructure (Mihindu) Novel approach -web container with VMs -web client with VM Future work environments for Scientific communities

  21. Closure • Discussion / Questions? • Thank you for your interest Sas Mihindu Future Workspaces Research Centre ThinkLab, 7th Floor Maxwell Building University of Salford +44 (0)78877 10872 s.mihindu@pgr.salford.ac.uk iaminuk@sas.mihindu.name
