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

Final Report: Conference in Paris on 29 June 2012 - How to Communicate About the European Citizens' Initiative?

The 29 June 2012 conference, entitled "How to communicate about the European Citizens' Initiative?" falls within the ambit of a project launched by our partner ECAS (European Citizen Action Service). Since 2010, Toute l'Europe has gone into partnership with ECAS, in order to contribute to the creation of the European Civil Society House which aims to make available to European citizens, both physically and virtually, an assistance platform for the following tools:The European Citizens' Initiative (ECI);The European Parliament's system of petitions;The referral of cases to the European Ombudsman;The complaint procedure before the European Commission; andAccess to the documentary resources of the European institutions

WINGS-CF Face-to-Face Meeting 2004

This report focuses mainly on workshop discussions and has been written from detailed notes taken by workshop scribes. Where there was overlap in discussion topics, some points have been combined: this is not just a transcript of the workshop discussions. The report starts with a summary of the implications for WINGS-CF from the meeting, and an overview of the workshops. For anyone who wants to delve more deeply into how a topic was explored at the gathering, Section 4 gives details of discussion, drawn from notes taken by each group and the "post-it" thoughts provided by participants before the working groups started the discussions

Grand Challenges of Traceability: The Next Ten Years

In 2007, the software and systems traceability community met at the first Natural Bridge symposium on the Grand Challenges of Traceability to establish and address research goals for achieving effective, trustworthy, and ubiquitous traceability. Ten years later, in 2017, the community came together to evaluate a decade of progress towards achieving these goals. These proceedings document some of that progress. They include a series of short position papers, representing current work in the community organized across four process axes of traceability practice. The sessions covered topics from Trace Strategizing, Trace Link Creation and Evolution, Trace Link Usage, real-world applications of Traceability, and Traceability Datasets and benchmarks. Two breakout groups focused on the importance of creating and sharing traceability datasets within the research community, and discussed challenges related to the adoption of tracing techniques in industrial practice. Members of the research community are engaged in many active, ongoing, and impactful research projects. Our hope is that ten years from now we will be able to look back at a productive decade of research and claim that we have achieved the overarching Grand Challenge of Traceability, which seeks for traceability to be always present, built into the engineering process, and for it to have "effectively disappeared without a trace". We hope that others will see the potential that traceability has for empowering software and systems engineers to develop higher-quality products at increasing levels of complexity and scale, and that they will join the active community of Software and Systems traceability researchers as we move forward into the next decade of research
