Electronic documents are essential components of corporate memory in organisations. The strategies and tools used to organise electronic documents are key to successful access of the knowledge they contain. This paper explores this topic by presenting a case study of a public sector body in New Zealand and the implementation of a new knowledge repository. The case study describes user involveme...

with the increased confidence in the use of the internet and the world wide web, the number of electronic commerce (e-commerce) transactions is growing rapidly. therefore, finding useful patterns and rules of users’ behaviors has become the critical issue for e-commerce and can be used to tailor e-commerce services in order to successfully meet the customers’ needs. this paper proposes an appro...

Background: Cooperative and Collaborative Learning approach with online programs is useful in response to rising demand for university educational system. This study evaluates the use of internet and computer in collaborative teaching and learning process for post graduate nursing students. Method: This is a correlation descriptive study. The population in the study is based on census sampling ...

The stabilized zirconia with different Cu contents synthesized via sol- gel method. The samples were prepared by hydrolysis and condensation of orgnomatelic sol. After that the result gels were dried at 80 °C and then calcined at various temperatures.  ِ The differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electronic microscopy (FESEM) and transmission el...

Extensive research has tracked how electronic publishing is influencing the informationseeking and reading behaviour of scholars. Tenopir et al. (2009) showed that scholars’ use of electronic information has increased substantially over time as academic libraries transit from print to electronic collections. The adoption of electronic information in academic settings has been extremely successf...

Protection of Intellectual Proprietary Rights is currently one of the most important barriers to electronic commerce of digital contents over networks. Authors and content providers understand the immense advantages of the digital world but show some reserve. However, technologies and techniques to protect IPR in digital content exist, their deployment in a coherent way is still in an early sta...

Snacks were produced by extruding blends of partially-defatted soybean flour with flours from milled or parboiled African-grown rice. The interplay between composition and processing in producing snacks with a satisfactory sensory profile was addressed by e-sensing, and by molecular and rheological approaches. Soybean proteins play a main role in defining the properties of the protein network i...

Atomic motion and electronic structures of Pd–Ni–Cu–P bulk metallic glasses were investigated using P nuclear magnetic resonance. The hopping rate of P atoms was determined by the stimulated echo technique. Significant hopping was observed in all alloys well below the glass transition temperature. Increasing the Cu content to above 25 at. % increases P hopping significantly, consistent with the...

We have studied the electronic structure of nanocrystalline NiO thin films, grown by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering under different experimental conditions, using x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The O 1s and Ni 2p spectra showed distinct changes as a function of O2 content in the plasma, which were reproduced with cluster model calculations. These changes are attributed to the incrementing...
