“…It also noteworthy to state that our design clearly addressed some crucial security issues raised in numerous papers such as (Boella et al (2006), (Portillo-Rodrguez et al (2007) and (Maret and Calmet, 2009). In Boella et al (2006) normative multi-agent systems for secure knowledge management based on local access-control policies are studied.…”

“…The authors argue that their approach respects the autonomy of the knowledge providers into the virtual community composed of multiple knowledge providers. In Portillo-Rodrguez et al (2007), authors propose a three-level multi-agent architecture for considering reputation and trust within communities of practice where knowledge is exchanged. (Maret and Calmet, 2009) proposed a general model that extends the abstraction of an agent, such that it becomes an actor within a knowledge community.…”

Virtual Knowledge Communities (VKC) are current popular media on the internet through which the access and sharing of knowledge and information among communities of similar interest groups are made possible. Agent's technologies are presently being deployed to facilitate the success of VKC, which is a virtual place where knowledge agents can meet, communicate and interact among themselves. Recently, quite a number of works have been done on agent-based knowledge communities but most of these works have not actually considered the possibilities of intrusion and the consequences that these malicious attacks can have on those systems. This paper therefore addresses the issue of intrusion detection problems in the sharing of knowledge in agent-based virtual knowledge communities. Intelligent agents are proposed as measures to guide against any spy or intruder into the VKC environment. The relevance of this method in current scientific research cannot be overemphasized as the work shows great potentials of yielding promising results.

Knowledge Sharing in Virtual Community Based on RDF Triple Publication and Retrieving To Process SPQRQL Query

Web ontologies, which usually appear as RDF graphs, are used to represent knowledge in web. In recent years, with the wide application of Semantic Web, large numbers of such web ontologies have appeared on the Internet, especially, in some virtual knowledge communities. These web ontologies are usually distributed in different sites and provide an amount of knowledge to query. But, it has become a pressing issue that, given a semantic query, how to efficiently gather the related knowledge from these web ontologies located in different sites to process it. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a P2P-based approach to publish RDF triples in sharable web ontologies and freely sharing them in an open distributed environment. Given a query of SPARQL (Simple Protocol and RDF Query Language), this approach can automatically gather published RDF triples related to the query to process the query. As a knowledge sharing approach, our approach can directly share RDF triples coming from different web ontologies on different nodes. It overcomes limitations of those approaches which focus on how to locate related ontologies for a query. We also conducted three experiments to evaluate the effectiveness and the efficiency of our approach. The experimental results demonstrated that it is effective and efficient.

With the availability of the Internet, virtual communities are proliferating at an unprecedented rate. In-depth understanding of virtual community dynamics can help us to address critical organizational and information systems issues such as communities-of-practice, virtual collaboration, and knowledge management. The biggest challenge in fostering a virtual community is the supply of knowledge through services and the willingness to share knowledge with other members. This paper integrates the Service Oriented Architecture and Agent Based Theory to construct a Reinforced Concrete design (RCD) model for Reinforced Concrete Analysts and Designers in virtual communities. The aim of this paper is to elucidate the sharing of knowledge in virtual community from the perspective of RCD serviceability service. Results confirm that RC Designers will share knowledge; if their perceive benefit exceed the cost of their sharing behaviour. This study is useful for the developers of Service oriented Applications for virtual communities to insight into knowledge sharing in cyberspace for RCD.
