Abstract:
Algorithmic research is an established knowledge engineering process that
has allowed researchers to identify new or significant problems, to better
understand existing approaches and experimental results, and to obtain new,
effective and efficient solutions. While algorithmic researchers regularly
contribute to this knowledge base by proposing new problems and novel
solutions, the processes currently used to share this knowledge are
inefficient, resulting in unproductive overhead. Most of these publication-
centred processes lack explicit high-level knowledge structures to support
efficient knowledge management. The authors describe a problem-centred
collaborative knowledge management architecture associated with
Computational Problem Solving (CPS). Specifically we articulate the
structure and flow of such knowledge by making in-depth analysis of the
needs of algorithmic researchers, and then extract the ontology. We also
propose a knowledge flow measurement methodology to provide human-centred
evaluations of research activities within the knowledge structure. This
measurement enables us to highlight active research topics and to identify
influential researchers. The collaborative knowledge management
architecture was realized by implementing an Open Computational Problem
Solving (OpenCPS) Knowledge Portal, which is an open-source project
accessible at http://www.opencps.org.
