The annual workshop "Knowledge and Experience Management" is organized
by the Special Interest Group on Knowledge Management of the German
Informatics society (GI). Its goals are to enable and further the
exchange of innovative ideas and practical applications in the field
of knowledge and experience management.
Submissions from current research out of these and adjacent areas are
welcome. Moreover, contributions that describe work in progress or
approaches that have not yet been investigated comprehensively are of
special interest. Even provisional approaches should, however, be
described sufficiently clear and structured, in order to serve as a
basis for interesting discussions among the participants.
The workshop aims to provide a platform for young researchers to
present their work and receive feedback from the knowledge and
experience management community. Moreover, we invite researchers to
contribute to the workshop by resubmitting conference papers and share
their ideas with the research community.
Topics of Interest
Submissions from all areas contributing to the development and
application of intelligent knowledge and experience management systems
are welcome. We explicitly encourage paper submissions which are not
mainstream but from communities within mathematics, social sciences or
economics in order to obtain a more interdisciplinary view on the
subject.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Experience & knowledge search and knowledge integration approaches:
case-based reasoning, logic-based approaches, text-based approaches,
semantic portals/wikis/blogs, Web 2.0, etc.
- Applications of knowledge and experience management (corporate
memories, e-commerce, design, tutoring/e-learning, e-government,
software engineering, robotics, medicine, etc.)
- (Semantic) Web Services for Knowledge Management (KM)
- Agile approaches within the KM domain
- Agent-based & Peer-to-Peer KM
- Just-in-time retrieval and just-in-time knowledge capturing
- Ways of knowledge representation (ontologies, similarity, retrieval,
adaptive knowledge, etc.)
- Support of authoring and maintenance processes (change management,
requirements tracing, (distributed) version control, etc.)
- Evaluation of KM systems
- Practical experiences ("lessons learned") with IT aided approaches
- Integration of KM and business processes
- Introspection and explanation capabilities of KM systems
- Application of Linked (Open) Data
Intended Audience
The target group includes researchers and practitioners who are
interested in developing, applying and analysing knowledge and
experience management systems as well as the scenarios they can be
used in. Further, the workshop is a great platform for young
researchers to present their work. Like in the previous workshops, we
encourage PhD students to present their work to a larger group of
researchers and get valuable feedback.
All workshop participants have to register for the LWA2012 conference.
