TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the perceived value of social annotation (SA) as contributing to learning in multiple undergraduate courses and found that most students perceived their own and peer annotations as productively contributing to the course community.

TL;DR: The proposed asymmetric knowledge representation learning model in manifold space (MAKR) alleviates the asymmetry and imbalance of relations and the unsatisfactory precise prediction and has achieved better performance in both triple classification and link prediction tasks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the impact of the KM and TQM on the performance of the chaine logistique and the efficiency of the personnel in Tunisien.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a qualitative research project with descriptive and correlational studies on knowledge management in BPO companies in the city of Manizales, Colombia, based on the adaptation of a knowledge management assessment model, of which 312 observations were made.

Abstract: Abstract How has Japan become a major economic power, a world leader in the automotive and electronics industries? What is the secret of their success? The consensus has been that, though the Japanese are not particularly innovative, they are exceptionally skilful at imitation, at improving products that already exist. But now two leading Japanese business experts, Ikujiro Nonaka and Hiro Takeuchi, turn this conventional wisdom on its head: Japanese firms are successful, they contend, precisely because they are innovative, because they create new knowledge and use it to produce successful products and technologies. Examining case studies drawn from such firms as Honda, Canon, Matsushita, NEC, 3M, GE, and the U.S. Marines, this book reveals how Japanese companies translate tacit to explicit knowledge and use it to produce new processes, products, and services.

TL;DR: The authors of as discussed by the authors propose a paradigm that highlights the salient characteristics of these new technologies, which they refer to as SLATES (search, links, authoring, tags, extensions, signals).

TL;DR: The article concludes that organizations willing to embrace the “Wiki way” with collaborative, conversational knowledge management systems, may enjoy better than linear knowledge growth while being able to satisfy ad-hoc, distributed knowledge needs.
