“…A personal knowledge management will help knowledge workers manage their competencies, achieve their goals, fulfill work tasks and support social processes and collaboration with peers and experts or support change management processes. A user ontology, which could be named a semantic e-portfolio [64], could support such goals. The user ontology along with user modeling processes will support a more human-centric or user-centric approach of Semantic Web.…”

This article focuses on the role of user modeling and semantic-enhanced representations for personalization. The paper presents a generic Ontology-based User Modeling framework (OntobUMf), its components and its associated user modeling processes. This framework models the behavior of the users and classifies its users according to their behavior. The user ontology is the backbone of OntobUMf and has been designed according to the Information Management System Learning Information Package (IMS LIP). The user ontology includes a behavior concept that extends IMS LIP specification and defines characteristics of the users interacting with the system. Concrete examples of how OntobUMf is used in the context of a Knowledge Management System (KMS) are provided. The paper discusses some of the implications of ontology-based user modeling for semantic-enhanced Knowledge Management (KM), and in particular for personal KM. The results of this research may contribute to the development of other frameworks for modeling user behavior, other semantic-enhanced user modeling frameworks or other semantic-enhanced information systems.

“…above) is a serious drawback, as the advantages of collaborative elements of learning have been clearly documented by a.o. Hermansen (2005) and Razmerita et al (2005). The problem may, however, be met through alternative platforms e such as Second Life or Mahara, but these platforms have not been at our disposal during the Moodle test procedure.…”

University educators and researchers face new generations of “digitally native” students, who approach academic disciplines in novel ways, thus creating a changed university-learning environment that demands new ways of building knowledge in a bottom-up process. A case in point is the area of corporate communication where we need new methods of approaching adult cultural/communicative learning since these integrated competences are much asked for in the business community. One way of approaching university pedagogy within these fields is asking whether social software could provide better tools that support social, collaborative processes that are fun, motivating and better support learning. The article therefore discusses collaborative and individualized learning processes and how social software platforms may better harness collective and personal knowledge in order to enhance learning outcome. The theoretical foundations of the article have been established at the crossroads between general learning theory, cultural/communicative learning theory and social media applications that facilitate collaborative, synchronous and interactive learning platforms. Data evaluation and comparisons in regard to learning outcomes are based on empirical data from two cases applying different learning platforms used in CBS programme courses involving culture and communication learning elements.

This paper describes the CompAA component model designed for adaptability management in open systems. Extension of the Ugatze component model validated for the static integration of components, CompAA aims to manage adaptable entities to resolve some problems due to the dynamics of open environments. The main contribution introduces the variability concept with the specification of adaptation points integrated by a mixed component/agent approach. An experimentation in the area of training on the grid validates our contribution.
