Exploratory study to explore the role of ICT in the process of knowledge management in an Indian business environment

In the 21st century and the emergence of a digital economy, knowledge and the knowledge base economy are rapidly growing. To effectively be able to understand the processes involved in the creating, managing and sharing of knowledge management in the business environment is critical to the success of an organization. This study builds on the previous research of the authors on the enablers of knowledge management by identifying the relationship between the enablers of knowledge management and the role played by information communication technologies (ICT) and ICT infrastructure in a business setting. This paper provides the findings of a survey collected from the four major Indian cities (Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai and Villupuram) regarding their views and opinions about the enablers of knowledge management in business setting. A total of 80 organizations participated in the study with 100 participants in each city. The results show that ICT and ICT infrastructure can play a critical role in the creating, managing and sharing of knowledge in an Indian business environment

The enablers and implementation model for mobile KMS in Australian healthcare

In this research project, the enablers in implementing mobile KMS in Australian regional healthcare will be investigated, and a validated framework and guidelines to assist healthcare in implementing mobile KMS will also be proposed with both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The outcomes for this study are expected to improve the understanding the enabling factors in implementing mobile KMS in Australian healthcare, as well as provide better guidelines for this process

A novel anonymization technique to trade off location privacy and data integrity in participatory sensing systems

Abstract—Preserving privacy in participatory sensing systems has recently gained research interest as voluntary contribution in such systems is not worthy if the privacy of the participants is not protected. On the other hand, data integrity is desired imperatively to make the service trustworthy and user-friendly. In this paper, we have proposed an adaptive location anonymization technique, which is capable of retaining an acceptable level of data integrity while keeping its vulnerability to eavesdropping adversaries low. Experimental results establish the proposed concept as a superior approach in balancing, somehow orthogonal, user privacy and data integrity
