The efficient storage of medical knowledge is critical for the advancement of medicine; a flexible platform for the storage of knowledge is the need of the hour. Therefore, this work focuses on clinical pathways—tools that effectively maintain the quality and control the cost of medicine—to formulate a model for knowledge storage. In this work, ontology was employed as the fundamental theory to...

The current storage models for Object-Oriented DataBase (OODB), which organize data as objects according to the Object-Oriented Data Model (OODM), are mainly established on the block storage devices. In this way, the storage manager does not have detailed knowledge of the characteristics of the underlying storage devices, and the storage subsystem does not have the semantic knowledge of the dat...

A minimum-knowledge scheme allows a claimant to prove its Identity to a verifier without disclosing any secret information. Minimum-knowledge schemes, incorporating identity verification, signature generation and verification, are generally based on interactive proofs. The Ohta-Okamoto minimum-knowledge identification and signature scheme is characterised by a good balance between the claimant’...

The development and deployment of practical Semantic Web applications requires technologies for the storage and retrieval of RDF data that are robust and scalable. In this paper, we describe the 3store RDF storage and query engine developed within the Advanced Knowledge Technologies project, and discuss the design rationale and optimisations behind it which enable the efficient handling of larg...

Knowledge management facilitates the capture, storage, and dissemination of knowledge using information technology. Methods for managing knowledge have become an important issue in the past few decades, and the KM community has developed a wide range of technologies and applications for both academic research and practical applications. In this paper, we propose a knowledge engineering approach...

How can practices of knowledge management (KM) enable organizational learning to occur and then lead toward a learning organization? We seek the answer to this question by exploring three cases, Winbond, Worldpeace, and TSMC, chosen respectively from upstream, midstream, and downstream firms in the IC industry in Taiwan. We studied KM practices focusing on aspects of knowledge creation, storage...
