7th Workshop on Information Logistics and Knowledge Supply
in conjunction with 13th International Conference on Business Informatics Research, BIR 2014
ILOG 2014 is the 7th workshop in a series which focuses on approaches, methods, technologies and solution for reducing information overflow and for improving information flow in organizations. In particular in knowledge-intensive industry and service sectors, information is a major factor in production processes, and knowledge reflects an important asset of the enterprise. Similarly, public organizations and governmental bodies are dependent on accurate and timely information supply for efficient and high quality processes and services. Intelligent information supply has become an important issue that is characterized by just-in-time, demand-oriented and context-sensitive information.
Experience shows that successful solutions for intelligent information supply involve several ingredients: a sound business case with clearly defined benefits and returns for the (networked) organization, a clear understanding of the user’s demand including the organizational context, and the right use of "enabling technologies” like semantic technologies, knowledge management or ubiquitous computing.
This workshop aims to bring together people who have strong interest in enterprise information systems, information logistics and knowledge supply. We invite researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to submit original results of their completed or ongoing projects. We encourage broad understanding of possible approaches and solutions for information logistics and knowledge supply.
The following topics are of relevance for the workshop:
• Challenges in information logistics and knowledge supply
