Student Seminar-3
by drtc＠isibang.ac.in 21 Sep '16

21 Sep '16

INDIAN STATISTICAL INSTITUTE DOCUMENTATION RESEARCH & TRAINING CENTRE (DRTC) 8th Mile, Mysore Road, RVCE Post Bengaluru,560059. DRTC Seminar: 03 (2015-2017) Topic: Knowledge management using social network analysis. ABSTRACT Knowledge management is the process of capturing, developing, sharing and effectively using organisational knowledge for the development and growth of the organisation. The goal is to improve the organisational output by empowering the individual members to create, capture and share knowledge in a network for better decision making for the organisation. Some knowledge (especially the tacit knowledge) could be learned only through repeated experiences or being transferred verbally from one individual to the next. A network especially the informal network within or outside the organisation where the knowledge flows between people in a group or outside the group is called social network and the methods and matrices use to understand the flows of knowledge is known as Social Network Analysis (SNA). In the 1960s organisations used to perform network analysis for the creation and assess of knowledge out of the communication network among its employees by collecting data through the questionnaire, interviews, and so forth. Today with the online social network (e.g., twitter, facebook), we have a massive amount of data inflowing, and it is easy to understand that the application of those traditional approaches like questionnaire and interviews would be highly expensive and complicated. We need a different set of approaches which are scalable to the volume of data we produce in the online social networks and also would allow to model social relations, facilitate informal exchange between individuals or between inside groups or communities easily and relatively at low cost. In this seminar, we will briefly discuss knowledge management in perspective of social network and network analysis. We will also discuss some of the open source tools for instance dmi-tcat, gephi, and netviz available for capturing and analysing the social network data. SPEAKER : SHIVA SHANKAR MAHATO DATE:22/9/2016 TIME:2:00 P.M. VENUE: DRTC class room (G-21), ISI, Bengaluru. All are cordially invited. Seminar Coordinator : Dr. Biswanath Dutta -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Copyright is not a devine right - HC
by D.V. Patwardhan 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Sir, This has reference to your discussion dt.18thsept, 2016 on “University copyingbooks for teaching is not copyright violation: Delhi HC (Vinod Mishra)”. Delhi HC ruling “Copyrightis not a devine right” is surprising. Copying “part of the contents” (one copyonly) from a book for educational purpose may not be violation of copyright andis was practiced since many decades by national agencies such as INSDOC andBLDSC. But, I feel that Copying full book in multiple copies is clear violationof copyright. I seek more explanation from copyright experts. D.V.Patwardhan Bengaluru
