The proposed CEAF will urge government departments at all levels to share information such as budgets, to allow for the creation of better solutions for the whole-of-government. Existing initiatives are currently limited to the procurement “economy of scale” level, or a superficial collaboration necessitated by an information exchange requirement within various departments of government. As envisaged in this work, the CEAF is defined as the link between government strategy and the corresponding capabilities and technology assets of the whole-of-government in action.

The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) Student Consortium (SC) is a network for young professionals studying or working within the fields of photogrammetry, remote sensing, Geographical Information Systems (GIS), and other related geo-spatial sciences. The main goal of the network is to provide means for information exchange for its young members and thus help promote and integrate youth into the ISPRS. Over the past four years the Student Consortium has successfully continued to fulfil its mission in both formal and informal ways. The formal means of communication of the SC are its website, newsletter, e-mail announcements and summer schools, while its informal ones are multiple social media outlets and various social activities during student related events. The newsletter is published every three to four months and provides both technical and experiential content relevant for the young people in the ISPRS. The SC has been in charge or at least has helped with organizing one or more summer schools every year. The organization's e-mail list has over 1,100 subscribers, its website hosts over 1,300 members from 100 countries across the entire globe, and its public Facebook group currently has over 4,500 joined visitors, who connect among one another and share information relevant for their professional careers. These numbers show that the Student Consortium has grown into a significant online-united community. The paper will present the organization’s on-going and past activities for the last four years, its current priorities and a strategic plan and aspirations for the future four-year period.

This chapter is about establishing a clear, productive attorney–expert relationship that sets the stage for good testimony. As clinicians and scientists, we are accustomed to being in control of how we share information. In our classrooms and consultation rooms, we orchestrate “what” and “how” information is shared. As expert witnesses in the courtroom, however, others are in control of the process. The idea of walking into a courtroom without first establishing a clear, precise plan with the attorney who is orchestrating the information exchange should be a very unsettling proposition. The chapter also frames the benefits of establishing a good working relationship with attorneys as a “two-way street.” Ideally, attorneys educate neuropsychologists and psychologists about the legal issues at hand, specific questions the expert will be asked to address, and the rules of testimony in the jurisdiction where the case is being heard. At the same time, neuropsychologists and psychologists educate attorneys about how we can contribute to understanding complex psychological and neuropsychological issues in cases. Together, a complex game plan for exchanging information during a trial is orchestrated.

A lot of information needs to be processed in the MEMS design process, but this information lack the unified expression format at present. This causes the design stage of MEMS not to be able to share information, furthermore causes low design efficiency. A product information model is presented according to MEMS design stage. XML language is used to describe information of each design stage, and an information exchange and sharing platform model has been established to solve MEMS design data sharing and exchange bottleneck question. The XML technology makes the platform reusable and extensible.

Information exchange between the buyer and supplier is an important aspect of supply chain management. Business to Business e-commerce helps firms to share information, maintain relationships, and conduct transactions more efficiently. The choice of e-commerce transactions will influence, and as well as affect, the relationships between exchange parties. In this paper, we examine a collection of diverse studies on EDI and e-marketplace from marketing and information systems literatures. Findings for managers considering choices on e-commerce transaction mechanisms will provide a more consistent understanding of buyersupplier relationships in the e-commerce context.

Recently, enterprises have increased their competitiveness through supply chain collaboration to efficiently allocate resources using the internet. However, supply chain collaboration usually fails because information is usually confidential. Many studies have discussed strategies of supply chain collaboration via internet but only a few of the strategies can be implemented in practice. Therefore, this research builds an information exchange platform to share production and inventory information over internet to ensure on-time delivery. This platform is implemented in a panel manufacturing company and 10% on-time delivery increase with 2% quality improvement after adapting this system. This result demonstrates the usefulness of using online platform to immediately share information will improve one-time delivery and quality assurance.

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) extensively share information with each other, work collaboratively over Internet of Things, and seamlessly integrated with human society. Designing CPS requires the new consideration of design for connectivity where security, privacy, and trust are of the main concerns. Particularly trust can affect system behavior in a networked environment. In this paper, trustworthiness is quantitatively measured by the perceptions of ability, benevolence, and integrity. Ability indicates the capabilities of sensing, reasoning, and influence in a society. Benevolence measures the genuineness of intention and reciprocity in information exchange. Integrity captures the system predictability and dependability. With these criteria, trust-based CPS network design and optimization are demonstrated.

Knowledge representation is a traditional field in artificial intelligence. Researchers have developed various ways to represent and share information among intelligent agents. Agents that share resources, data, information, and knowledge perform better than agents working alone. However, previous research has also revealed that sharing knowledge among a large number of entities in an open environment is a problem yet to be solved. Intelligent robots are designed and produced by different manufacturers. They have various physical attributes and employ different knowledge representations. Therefore, any nonstandard or non-widely-adopted technology is unsuitable for providing a satisfactory solution to the knowledge sharing problem. In this research, we pose robot knowledge sharing as an activity to be developed in an open environment — the World Wide Web. Just as search engines like Google provide enormous power for information exchange and sharing for humans, we believe that a searching mechanism designed for intelligent agents can provide a robust approach to sharing knowledge among robots. We have developed: (1) a knowledge representation for robots that allows Internet access, (2) a knowledge organization and search indexing engine, and (3) a query/reply mechanism between robots and the search engine.

Blockchain-based loan system can be summed up as: information exchange between various government departments; information exchange between enterprises and various financial institutions; detection of the actual use of loans in the form of encrypted currency. This technology is supposed to reduce a lot of financing costs for SMEs on average. Therefore, this research extends complexity theory to discover the factors that affect the use of Blockchain loan systems by SMEs. Complexity, perceived risk, perceived fairness and reward sensitivity prove to have significant effects on usage intention. Complexity proves to have moderating effects on other relationships. This research may contribute to the system performance improvement and provide opportunities for SMEs to share information with financial institutions or individuals around the world, thereby providing investors with equal opportunities for competition.
