Aim: Pharmaceutical healthcare is a process comprising knowledge-intensive tasks. Therefore the tools used in the management of knowledge are gaining more attention. This paper aims to investigate knowledge management systems, their implementation, tools used for decision making. Method: We have used three databases to research the knowledge management system in the pharmaceutical healthcare sector. PubMed, Google Scholar and journal websites were used for the search of the required key terms. Result: After analyzing the data, it was found that the effective utilization of knowledge management systems in the pharmaceutical health care sector has increased the quality of care. There are many opportunities; some create new advances in health care, and some even create barriers. All these help in clinical decision support. Conclusion: Right decision at the right time is made by evidence-based decisions in the healthcare sector. A knowledge management system is paramount in the pharmaceutical healthcare sector. Implementation of appropriate tools will significantly enhance the quality of care.

Nowadays cloud computing technologies are cost-effective services enabling to generate the learning quality. The goal of this research is to define the borderline of the effectiveness and limitation of the partial implementation of Knowledge Management System based on cloud computing technologies. In view of this, the research in the form of knowledge testing as well as objective and subjective assessment of the learning quality within a wide sampling of 396 students in two independent reference groups was conducted. One of the groups has used traditional methods of the training conducted in classrooms by applying e-learning, and the other one has used the Knowledge Management System based on cloud services under the most budgetary option. As a result, a range of certain differences in the quality of training of two groups was found out and the latter must be used for a further study. According to the results of all tests related to the quality of training, in the group, that has used Knowledge Management Systems and cloud computing technologies, the students have demonstrated results above average in various tests than in the group where these technologies have not been used. The results allow defining specific advanced features of Knowledge Management Systems with the application of cloud computing technologies in the education.

This article discusses system use as a measure of knowledge management success. It is proposed that for knowledge management systems (KMS) it is not the amount of use that is important, but rather the quality of that use and the intention to use the KMS when appropriate. Evidence is provided to support this proposition and a knowledge management system success model incorporating this proposition is discussed. Additionally, findings are provided that show that new users to an organization use the KMS differently than experienced users and implications of this difference are discussed.

The crux of the challenge in bridging the scholar-practitioner gap in Human Resource Development is in creating effective mechanisms for the transfer of knowledge between scholars and practitioners. Emerging literature on the topic of knowledge management, and of knowledge management systems, provide a compelling point of view in which to consider the scholar-practitioner gap in HRD. In the chapter, knowledge management systems, as a functional outcropping of systems theory, are considered along with the use of logic models to develop and evaluate organization and program effectiveness. Preliminary research results conducted by Hughes and Wang (2015) gives further support to the notion that considering HRD as a knowledge management system may provide a framework for bridging the scholar-practitioner gap.

This study examines the factors that cause a person to become a continuous user of a knowledge management system by examining continuance behavior. Continuance behavior is the decision to continue using a product after initial use. The data for this study were obtained using an online survey. The results were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. Six main hypotheses were developed which resulted in the evaluation of fourteen hypotheses. The results show that the technological features of a knowledge management system positively influence a user’s evaluation with limited influence from the system’s community features. The results produced a 58% coefficient of determination for knowledge management systems continuance intention and 37% for knowledge management systems continuance behavior. This investigation serves as a foundation for further research on the continuance usage of knowledge management systems. It addresses the needs of practitioners by examining which conditions they can manage to increase the purposeful use of their organizations’ knowledge management systems. The study also addresses the needs of academia by expanding the literature on continuance behavior of knowledge management systems.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the effect of the type of information to be disclosed and the possibility of sharing the information anonymously on the intention to share information through a knowledge management system. Data for the experiment were collected in two individualist (U.K. and U.S.) and two collectivist (Chile and Mexico) countries to evaluate the influence of culture on information sharing patterns. The study finds that although anonymity has no influence on the intention to share successes, the intention to share failures increases when the information is shared anonymously. Further, participants from collectivist (versus individualist) cultures are more likely to share failures. However, the influence of anonymity and culture is limited. Failures are still shared at lower levels than successes, even in anonymous conditions and in collectivist cultures.

Web based knowledge management systems have opened new arrays in the present web based world. This paper proposed a web based knowledge management system (WBKMS) for university libraries that will support the creation, organization, storage, dissemination and utilization of the institutions digital knowledge assets. Existing web based knowledge management systems were surveyed and a model framework was developed keeping in view the prevailing loopholes in the present systems. This research will improve staff professionalism and will help in achieving coordination with other libraries and library users.

Organizations need well architected systems for Knowledge Management (KM). This chapter begins with a review of approaches adopted by organizations for developing KM solutions. It defines a set of components that can form the building blocks for developing a Knowledge Management system. The relevance of the principles of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to KM solutions is explained. It presents the architecture of a generic Knowledge Management system based on the components defined and the principles of SOA. It then discusses the patterns for implementing the architecture followed by maturity levels of Knowledge Management systems.

ZusammenfassungDieser Artikel präsentiert einen praxisorientierten Ansatz für die Umsetzung des Wissensmanagements in Unternehmen. Das Konzept des Knowledge Broker Networks basiert auf einem Hybrid-System aus Mensch und Maschine. Dieses unterstützt sowohl das Auffinden von Informationen als auch die Herstellung eines Kontakts zwischen einer Person mit einer konkreten Aufgabenstellung und einer Person bzw. Personengruppe, die bei der Lösung hilfreich sein könnte. Um unsere Vision einer Optimierung des automatisierten Suchvorgangs innerhalb eines Knowledge Management Systems zu verdeutlichen, stellen wir diese anhand eines Szenarios beispielhaft dar. Zusätzlich werden die Ergebnisse unserer Untersuchung zu im Internet verfügbaren Kontakt- und Wissens-Austausch-Plattformen und einige ausgewählte Ergebnisse zu den Erwartungen potentieller Nutzer an ein Knowledge Management System aufgezeigt.
