Fresnel transform meteor speed estimation is investigated. A spectral based technique is developed allowing the transform to be applied at low temporal sampling rates. Simulations are used to compare meteoroid speeds determined using the Fresnel transform and alternative techniques, confirming that the Fresnel transform produces the most accurate meteoroid speed estimates for high effective pul...

BACKGROUND Kasabach-Merritt syndrome (KMS) is a rare but life-threatening illness. The purpose of this study is to report our single-center experience with KMS. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of 13 patients who were diagnosed with KMS between 1997 and 2012 at Samsung Medical Center. Treatment response was defined as follows: 1) hematologic complete response (HCR) - platelet count >13...

Knowledge management systems (KMSs) that provide the necessary infrastructure to implement the KM process have become the backbone of the organizations. For example, employees avoid taking mistake again through KMS reuse. This issue has raised the concern of not only practitioners but also MIS research. Task technology fit (TTF) is the theory that has emerged in recent literature of KMS utiliza...

McCall et al. (2008) KMS use Decision performance and knowledge acquisition ACT-R theory Experiment Students who enrolled in a managerial accounting class WebCT, an internetbased course portal In the short term, KMS increased decision performance, but in the long term, it did not help development of domain expertise Test scores, encoding of explicit knowledge and problemsolving skills Journal o...

Knowledge Management System was recognized as one of the key enablers in a Knowledge Management initiative. This is because KMS have been prove bring value for Knowledge Management initiatives such as eliminate distance and time barriers. Furthermore KMS also made KM more effective for the organization. As general KMS have two main functions, first managing people interaction and managing infor...

Knowledge and culture are inextricably linked in organizations. Effective deployment of Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) requires an understanding of the culture of the knowledge workers in the organization and their perceptions towards such systems. It would be a mistake to perceive the organization as a homogenous culture. Instead, organizations are composed of multiple subcultures that co-...

Knowledge Management (KM) has been recognized as a critical management strategy in generating competitive advantage for the organization. In order to protect organizational knowledge stored in or transferred through company’s Knowledge Management Systems (KMS), information security controls have to be incorporated into these systems. However, overly strict controls may adversely impact the perc...

To solve complicated problems, people often seek input from others. Knowledge management systems (KMSs) provide help in this activity by offering a computer-mediated approach to information sharing. However, if the KMS contains content that is obsolete or incomplete, those using the system may expend greater amounts of effort to detect what content is worthwhile or they risk relying on poor inp...

In the prior studies, researchers believe that the fit between KM processes and task characteristics, or the fit between KM processes and KMS capabilities may improve KM performance. Yet little is known about how the fit among task characteristic, KM processes, and KMS capabilities impacts KM performance. This study proposes an extended model by integrating above two different research streams ...
