    No full text
    With more users taking advantage of publicly accessible networks, such as corporate intranets and the Internet, larger amounts of information is becoming electronically distributed and disseminated. Distributed information management is an emerging technology for dealing with the problems of managing information that is spread across networks, users and applications. We present four categories that we consider being necessary to developing tools to undertake distributed information management tasks. To help model the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of a user's distributed information, we advocate the use of agents and agent technologies when building distributed information management applications. We present an agent-oriented architecture which is based around a concept of mobile agents, since they provide a convenient abstraction for modelling distributed applications

    Bridge monitoring system via information technology is capable of providing more accurate knowledge of bridge performance characteristics than traditional strategies. This paper describes not only an integrated Internet monitoring system that consists of a stand-alone monitoring system (SMS) and a Web-based Internet monitoring system (IMS) for bridge maintenance but also its application to para-stressing bridge system as an intelligent structure. IMS, as a Web-based system, is capable of addressing the remote monitoring by introducing measuring information derived from SMS into the system through Internet or intranet connected by either PHS or LAN. Moreover, the key functions of IMS such as data management system, condition assessment, and decision making with the proposed system are also introduced in this paper. Another goal of this study is to establish the framework of a para-stressing bridge system which is an intelligent bridge by integrating the bridge monitoring information into the system to control the bridge performance automatically.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

    The multi-layered nature of the internet-based democratization of brand management

    The evolution of the internet, including developments such as Web 2.0, has led to new relationship realities between organizations and their stakeholders. One manifestation of these complex new realities has been the emergence of an internet-based democratization of brand management. Research about this phenomenon has so far mainly focused on investigating just one or more individual themes and thereby disregarded the inherent multi-layered nature of the internet-based democratization of brand management as a holistic, socio-technological phenomenon. The aim of this paper is to address this limitation through an investigation of the various socio-technological democratization developments of the phenomenon. To achieve this aim, a balanced and stakeholder-oriented perspective on brand management has been adopted to conduct an integrative literature review. The review reveals three key developments, which together form the essential parts of the phenomenon: (I) the democratization of internet technology, (II) the democratization of information, and (III) the democratization of social capital. The insights gained help to clarify the basic structures of the multi-layered phenomenon. The findings contribute also to the substantiation of a call for a new brand management paradigm: one that takes not only company-initiated but also stakeholder-initiated brand management activities into accoun

    Knowledge management has created the new era of dramatic changes in managerial discourse. Given that knowledge management does not suffice to know the code and documented alone, many organizations around the world rely on their implicit knowledge and enhance their competitive position in seeking to improve their effectiveness and efficiency. In knowledge management, acquiring and application processes of knowledge are in order to achieve individual and organizational goals. Knowledge management is based on three pillars: people, processes and technology. Between these three factors, technology has created great changes in knowledge management system in the last two decades. Due to the increasing use of information technology in organizations, knowledge management and its use is increasing. Technologies, such as local area networks (LAN), Intranet, Internet, email, databases, and organizations, all have played an important role in knowledge management. On the other hand,capabilities such as more accessible, offering advanced applications and the decreasing cost of computer equipment increased the role of information technology support for knowledge management and it leads to significant improvements in behavior intelligence and knowledge-based organizations and individuals.Further analysis on the emerging technologies such as Internet-based systems, facilitate the distribution of knowledge and knowledge management, But this attitude is that these technologies are indeed anti-knowledge and knowledge management and information may not only lead to the accumulation of knowledge, So knowledge management facing challenges vague and non-systematic. Given that a few studies Has been in the field of knowledge management in insurance companies, In this research we focus on select the most appropriate technology for Knowledge acquisition and application processes in insurance companies and with Offering a perspective on knowledge and manage it, investigate the role of information technology in knowledge management and evaluate and select appropriate technology using fuzzy AHP. Keywords: knowledge management, information technology, technology choice, Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process.

    Several years ago, Ives and Jarvenpaa (1996, p. 34) suggested: To many, the Internet technologies resemble the personal computer revolution of the early 1980s, which transformed information management. Today, while educational institutions continue to expand the instructional use of the Internet and web-based technologies, there remains much to be learned about the effectiveness of various technology-mediated learning approaches. Various formats for course designs that use technology are being tried and are commonly referred to today as e-courses. Similarly, student learning constitutes increasing degrees of technology use as part of the course. This paper provides information on using the Internet and web-based technologies as part of an instructional design. The Introduction to Information Technology course upon which the paper is based features an approach that both exemplifies the benefits of using technology while maintaining the richness of a class setting.
