Description |
Online communities have emerged in all areas of society, and their use is now widespread
in social, business, scientific and public service domains. They enable the community
members to collaborate through shared ideas, knowledge and opinion. Thus, online communities
generate major economic value to business and can form pivotal parts of corporate
expertise management, corporate marketing, product support, customer relationship
management, product innovation and targeted advertising.
The objective of ROBUST is to analyze, manage and care for online communities, in
order support their well being, to provide access to the created values and to exploit
the knowledge and information contained within. This requires the development of metrics,
models and algorithms in several fields.
ROBUST is a 3 year, �6.8M EU project with a consortium of 10 partners from 6 countries.
ROBUST is led by the University of Koblenz-Landau, and involves the companies of IBM,
SAP, Polecat, Temis, and SoftwareMind, as well as the academic institutions of OU
KMi, University of Southampton, National University of Ireland, and the Technical
University of Berlin. |
