I
am a professor of information systems in the Management and
Entrepreneurship Division at the Leeds School of Business, Univ. of
Colorado, Boulder. My research interest
is in knowledge management and reuse. My past research has focused on process knowledge,
such as process models and ontology. That effort led to successful
projects such as the Process Handbook project and the Process Interchange
Format, a common process ontology that support sharing of process models across
different representations and has been incorporated into the National Institute
of Standards and Technology Process Specification Language. My recent research
focus is on the use of text mining to study the role of concept in knowledge
management--how a given concept differs across organizational and national
cultures, how the similarities and differences among them can be identified and
represented, how a given concept evolve over time, and how these differences
affect knowledge sharing. The inter-nomological network project is an example
in which, working with Professor Kai Larsen, we tried to identify related
research by identifying closely related constructs through text mining.
