Knowledge has become an important factor in the success of organizations. Several authors reflect this in their use of terms such as knowledge society (e.g., Nonaka, 1994) or knowledge age (e.g., Bereiter, 2002). The role of knowledge has changed fundamentally with the development of a knowledge society. Knowledge is still an indispensable resource for the individual as well as for an organizat...

We investigate the cryptanalysis of reducedround RC6 without whitening. Up to now, key recovery algorithms against the reduced-round RC6 itself, the reduced-round RC6 without whitening, and even the simplified variants have been infeasible on a modern computer. In this paper, we propose an efficient and feasible key recovery algorithm against reducedround RC6 without whitening. Our algorithm is...

While the potential influence of national culture on the efficiency of knowledge management interventions has been widely accepted there is a little discussion concerning the underlying question – are the theories and models of knowledge related processes we use are influenced by culture? SECI model proposed by Nonaka and Takeuchi is very influential in knowledge management community, and its a...

Knowledge management (KM) has evolved from different disciplines and can be observed from various perspectives. The most important KM perspectives are personal communication and information technology (IT). Most IT companies have renamed their groupware and business intelligence products to fit the KM concept and to further develop them as knowledge management systems (KMS). In fact, they devel...

We report novel compound heterozygous mutations of the UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase and N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) gene, c.302G>A (p.R101H) and c.617-4A>G, in a Japanese family with distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) presenting with slow progression. The three patients could stand and walk even 36, 34, and 39 years after onset, respectively, although affected individuals b...

REQUIRED) Information Systems (IS) have often been the mechanism by which Knowledge Transfer (KT) has been accomplished within organizations. However, in the case of Business Intelligence (BI) it is also often the source or the knowledge required to be transferred. While the IS profession has effectively studied explicit knowledge, the conversion of tacit to explicit knowledge (Champika et al. ...
