Call for Papers: Workshops at the 3rd Conference Professional Knowledge Management: Experiences and Visions (WM'2005) CALL FOR WORKSHOP PAPERS 3rd Conference Professional Knowledge Management: Experiences and Visions WM'2005 April 10-13, 2005, Kaiserslautern, Germany http://wm2005.iese.fraunhofer.de Submission Deadline: September 3, 2004 CONFERENCE PROFESSIONAL KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT -------------------------------------------- Professional Knowledge Management is imperative for the success of enterprises. One decisive factor for the success of KM projects is the coordination of elements such as corporate culture, enterprise organization, human resource management, and information and communication technology. The adequate alignment and balancing of these factors is currently little understood - especially the role of IT, which is often regarded only as an implementation tool, though it can be a driver by making new KM solutions possible. The conference will bring together representatives of practical and research fields for discussing experiences, professional applications and visions through presentations, workshops, tutorials, and an accompanying industry exhibition. The main focus of the conference is placed on the realization of KM strategies with the aid of innovative IT solutions, such as intelligent access to organizational memories, or integration of business processes and KM. Also of interest are holistic/integrative attempts of KM that deal with issues raised by the integration of people, organizations, and IT.
