A Conceptual Model of a Knowledge Warehouse - Enterprise Information Systems Design, Implementation and Management: Organizational Applications - page 159

organizing unstructured information to be shared
in a collaborative environment.
Nevu and Wade (2007) claim that there is a
need to align system performance with stake-
holder expectations. Therefore, encompassing
the stakeholder view in the KW-CM, starting
from the conceptual modeling, can enhance the
usability and satisfaction from DW. Furthermore,
the suggested environment can help in analyzing
DW usage and improvements. Since the KW-CM
architecture defines a separate layer for the KW
it is applicable for existing DW without the need
to redesign them.
The presented KW concept modeling opens a
new direction in DW research and implementation.
Further work will address designing and imple-
menting issues concerning KW-CM application
and use. This involves various aspects of IS such as
IS services, organizational ontology-related issues
as well as KW processes and KW analytic pro-
cesses, human-computer interactions (HCI) and
computer supported collaborative work (CSCW).
