SIETTE is an efficient web-based implementation of a Computer Adaptive Test. The inference machine used is based on Item Response Theory. New enhances in the evaluation mechanisms, question selection and finalization criteria have been introduced. New evaluation mechanism allows giving structured knowledge estimation about all topics evaluated in a test. Question selection criteria are able to ...

Zusammenfassung Zur Unterstützung von Wissensarbeitern wird eine innovative Wissensund Kooperations-Plattform (WiKo) für ein interaktionsorientiertes Wissensmanagement vorgestellt. Diese verbindet die Wissensbereitstellung und die Wissenserzeugung zu einem zyklischen Prozess, so dass einerseits das Wissen der Organisation durch den einzelnen Wissensarbeiter genutzt und andererseits darauf aufba...

In the current study, knowledge contribution in open web-based encyclopedia is conceptualized as a group-referent intentional social action, and we-intention, which reflects one’s perception of the group acting as a unit, has been employed. The motivation of this study thus is to better understand antecedents and consequences of contribution I-intention and we-intention in open web-based encycl...

Mining the data from large-plain text enhances the retrieval of information from resources. This paper describes about the automatic discovery of part-whole patterns from the texts using knowledge. The Parts are found by learning semantic constraints and linking documents to the knowledge-base. Knowledge Discovery in text is a potential method, which automatically extracts the concepts and conc...

This paper briefly describes some of the modelling work of intelligent web-based educational systems with cognitive monitoring. Specifically, it focuses on the interaction process consisting of a processor based on mental models and several interaction environments related to interface devices. Both systems work together to regulate the student learning process through controlling working memor...

Hearsay-Ill provides a framework for constructing knowledge-based expert systems. While HearsayIll makes no commitment to any particular application domain, it does supply a variety of generally applicable facilities. These include representation primitives and an interpreter for large-grained, flexibly schedulable production rules called knowledge sources. A detailed overview of the motivation...

The nature of software engineering projects is rather complex. They involve people with different backgrounds, working in different phases and activities. Software engineering is a field where constant technology change takes place, rendering the work of involved people highly dynamic, in the sense that discovering solutions for new problems belongs to the daily tasks. Knowledge in software eng...
