Publication Open Access Knowledge Management framework for the supervision of IT postgraduate research in Sri Lanka(Springer, Singapore, 2022) Fernando, W. M. J. H; Gamage, M. P. A. WThe private sector higher education industry is increasingly attracting a knowledge-based community that depends critically on Knowledge Management (KM) and Knowledge Sharing (KS) activities to expand the quality of supervising postgraduate research students. Using the KM approach to share good research supervision knowledge will help junior research supervisors to conduct quality research with students and thereby help the supervision process to be more successful. The objective of this study is to suggest a conceptual framework that fits in the supervision process. This is conducted to investigate how KM and Information Technology (IT) can be used to develop a model for the supervision process. The framework highlights the critical KM activities in the research supervision process, and it is based on the Task/Technology Fit theory. Using this framework, the knowledge of the more experienced supervisors will be captured and used by junior supervisors in their supervision process.Publication Embargo Knowledge management implications in ERP implementations: Evidence from Sri Lankan Cases(IEEE, 2008-12-12) Suraweera, T; Mahagederawatte, S; Kahandawaarachchi, C; Hewamallikage, P; Periyapperuma, D; Adipola, MKnowledge management (KM) plays a major role in the success of implementing enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in business organizations. This research aims to provide an in-depth understanding of ERP implementation processes in Sri Lanka. The major issues associated with KM in ERP implementations are brought into light and possible strategies for overcoming such issues are identified. The research builds on the work of Baskerville et al. (2006), and focuses on the importance of 'operational level' knowledge practices of capturing, integrating and sharing during ERP system implementations. Results of multiple case study interviews have been analyzed using cognitive maps to determine the issues deem to have a major impact on the success of ERP implementations. Some of the key strategies that can be used to overcome the problems associated with KM in ERP implementations are presented.Publication Embargo Knowledge management framework for achieving quality of healthcare in the developing countries(IEEE, 2013-01-20) Amararachchi, J. L; Perera, H. S. C; Pulasinghe, KA severe dearth of medical experts in health institutions in the rural and remote areas in developing countries has directly affected the quality of healthcare. This problem can be alleviated by providing facilities to access up to date medical Information and knowledge for doctors who are stationed in these areas to update their knowledge. Since Knowledge Management System (KMS) consists of most related Information and knowledge, medical KMSs could be utilized to enhance the quality of clinical activities. This study was aimed to identify the factors that affect the knowledge management initiatives. Findings of the research have shown that there is a strong association between accessing and using Information/ knowledge in clinical activities and the quality of healthcare. Moreover, attitudes of Medical Practitioners (MP), Infrastructure facilities, patient Information systems, patient treatment, staff benefits etc., have contribute positively towards the success of knowledge management in Health organizations. The research has used the case study methodology for accomplishing the research objectives. Remote and rural areas in Sri Lanka have considered for the case study which is one of the developing countries in the Asian region.
