Augmented Support for Knowledge Sharing by Academic Conferences- On-line Conferencing BA

With the fast-growth in both scale and frequency of conferences and advances in communication and information technologies, digital revolutions are happening to conferencing affairs. Instead of only focusing on conference management, we regard conference as a platform for knowledge accumulating, organizing and sharing, which provides opportunities for idea generation and potential collaborations. Then a different attempt of developing a so-called on-line conferencing Ba is made to facilitate the intensive knowledge activities by pushing augmented information acquired by a variety of linkage mining to reveal the constructive concepts of the concerned discipline, research interest groups, and correspondence between authors and ideas or topics together with basic functions in data management as general conferencing system. Such endeavors aim to exhibit different perspectives of the concerned disciplines and support emergence of a Ba for knowledge creation.
