In a world where finding information is laborious, the knowledge that a document is from a "“trusted source" is valuable. This presentation explores whether coming of Google and other web based search engines have impacted how science is done, peer reviewed and published and whether the present peer review process is necessary and maintains the quality and focus of a journal and articles published. With increasing number of Open Access Institutional Repositories worldwide and indexed by Google, more and more scientific literature is now visible than before and hence resulting in increased worldwide access to scientific literature. Quality blogs and wikis have speeded up the process of scientific communication through informal peer reviews while the present system of formal peer review still attempts to maintain quality of a reserach paper although it tends to slow down the process of scientific communication. More debate and discussion on issues mentioned will further shed light on this important subject of peer reviews in Google environment.","","humanities.communication mrefs research.ir.ranking research.web20.communities science ","",""

In an attempt to address this knowledge gap, a particular subset of virtual communities - open source software project communities - is investigated and four hypotheses are asserted which relate social network structure to community success. The hypotheses, which are based on social network theory and related research, suggest that success is supported by high levels of affiliation with other communities, moderate levels of density within the network of community conversations, moderate levels of density in the communications between peripheral members and core members, and low levels of density in the communications between administrators and the rest of the community. Empirical research is underway to test these hypotheses based on a sample of over 200 open source software project communities.","","mrefs research.web20.communities study.web20 ","",""

We illustrate ontology emergence by two case studies, an analysis of a large scale folksonomy system and a novel method for the extraction of community-based ontologies from Web pages.","","mrefs research.conceptual.folksonomy research.kr.ontologies research.web20.communities ","",""

However, many of the mechanisms and procedures that it uses are still unknown in de- tail. For instance, how equal (or unequal) are the contributions to it has been discussed in the last years, with no conclusive results. In this paper, we study exactly that aspect by using Lorenz curves and Gini coefficients, very well known instruments to economists. We analyze the trends in the inequality of distributions for the ten biggest language editions of Wikipedia, and their evolution over time. As a result, we have found large differences in the number of contributions by different authors (something also observed in free, open source software development), and a trend to stable patterns of inequality in the long run.","","mrefs research.web20.communities study.web20 ","",""

The basic core of Web 2.0, that users can generate and share their own content, often regarding company brands and products, provides both potential value and challenges to marketing practitioners. Along with conducting secondary research, we interviewed 30 marketing executives and senior managers at companies at the forefront of using this technology. We found that there were four principles which guided managers' marketing actions: 1) facilitate users in generating content, 2) focus on building a community, 3) ensure authenticity of the message, and 4) look for marketing opportunities through experimentation.","","mrefs research.web20.communities study.web20 ","",""

If consumers are rational, as is assumed in economics, they prefer the product with the low-variance of review-rating scores rather than the product with the high- variance of review-rating scores because the variance of review-rating scores is positively related to the perceived uncertainty of product performance. Our study finds the condition in which consumers are likely to act irrationally, and explain why consumers have irrational behavior with attribution theory. When attributional bias occurs, consumers with a favorable prior brand attitude prefer the product with high-variance reviews over the product with low-variance reviews. Whereas, if attributional bias does not exist, rational behavior about the information uncertainty is found. Our findings show the underlying mechanism for the consumers' responses to the disagreements of others' opinions and give practical implications for online sellers.","","mrefs research.web20.communities study.web20 ","",""

However, it is not clear if such understandings can be developed in highly distributed groups that do not regu- larly meet face-to-face. In this paper, we present the re- sults of a preliminary analysis of shared mental models within a Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) de- velopment team. We analyzed mental models using cogni- tive mapping and process analysis and compared the models of four developers from the Apache Lucene Java project. Our analysis suggests that there is a high level of sharing among core developers but the sharing is not complete, with some differences related to tenure and role in the project. Finally, we suggest directions for further research on shared mental models in FLOSS teams.","","mrefs research.web20.communities tech.coding tech.licenses ","",""

Although researchers have been studying the evolution of software systems since the early 70s, the study on the evolution of software development teams remains rare. Such evolutionary patterns and their impact on software quality are especially important in the context of OSS (Open Source Software) development, where a group of volunteer developers collaborate online for an extended period of time. By analyzing how social networks of developers evolve over time while building OSS products, we can gain knowledge and experience to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of resource management and distribution in future OSS projects. To this end, we studied the evolution of the developer communities using a suite of OSS products developed under the KOffice project. We found that in general, the social networks of OSS developer communities change over time in certain ways. Identifying such patterns can help OSS managers better understand the unique process of OSS development and improve their management and coordination of the projects.","","mrefs research.web20.communities tech.coding tech.licenses ","",""
