Information Ecology and Knowledge Management

Interorganizational Ecology and Information Visibility

Increasingly, companies use interorganizational information systems to conduct joint business processes, such as automatic replenishment systems and other supply chain initiatives, invoicing and payments, insurance claims processing and numerous other interorganizational processes. Inter-firm networking in turn increases the visibility of information generated and used by business partners. The...

Information Theory in Ecology

The application of information theory (IT) to ecology has occurred along two separate lines: (1) it has been used to quantify the distribution of stocks and numbers of organisms; and (2) it has been employed to quantify the pattern of interactions of trophic processes. By and large, the first endeavor has resulted in relatively few insights into ecosystem dynamics and has generated much ambigui...

Exploring a sustainable and public information ecology

This article explores the design and execution of an intentionally public information ecology by focusing on three of the primary communication activities (blogging, videos, and microblogging) taking place immediately before, during, and after a small international conference of digital media professionals. Drawing on an activity theory framework for analyzing data collected via an exploratory ...

"principles of Phylogenetics: Ecology

I. Continuous characters – ancestral states Many traits of interest are measured on continuous or metric scales – size and shape, physiological rates, etc. Continuous traits are often useful for species identification and taxonomic descriptions; historically, they were also used in phylogenetic analysis through the use of clustering algorithms that can group taxa based on multivariate phenetic ...
