Abstract:
Information landscaping-an integration of information mapping, charting,
querying and reporting techniques-has been developed to enable the
construction of a total quality knowledge management system focusing on a
particular subject information field. The techniques apply five major
parameters of the Fuzzy commonality model.(FCM) including unionization,
quantity, continuity or stability, changeability, and critical probability,
to construct a series of information maps (infomaps) and a set
of chronological-statistical charts (infocharts). The infomaps and
infocharts are used as the blueprints and navigation agents for building
and,developing a web-based subject experts depository and query-report
system. Focusing on the subject experts/expertise, this system enables a
researcher to expedite a query search through infomaps (qualitative
reference) and infocharts (quantitative reference). The entropy measurement
and the entropy constant (the square root of the average entropy measure)
are calculated to compare with the critical probability of the FCM. This
leads to the finding of a set of regression straight lines and the
establishment of an information oscillogram. The tropics (upper limit,
middle range, lower limit), and the potential/solstitial population and its
growth rate within a subject information domain during a particular time
period can be determined. They can effectively and efficiently guide
librarians and information professionals towards the construction and the
continuous development of an electronic collection. The cultivation of a
virtual learning and referencing environment can also be created by
utilizing this data. (C) 2002
