Telemedicine is a rising technology of applied medical sciences through which patients medical reports can be transmitted and stored for references and consultations. Medical treatment in Pakistan still requires immense improvement as incorrect diagnosis and treatment, has resulted in the distorting the patient for life or death. First aid system in our country is unbelievably bad, and many lives could be saved if proper first aid diagnosis and treatment is provided in the first two hours.

Information technology forms an important part of the healthcare solution. Accurate and up-to-date information is essential to continuous quality improvement in any organization, and particularly so in an area as complex as healthcare. Therefore, diverse information systems must be integrated across the healthcare enterprise. The knowledge base in the medical field is large, complex, and growing rapidly. It includes scientific knowledge, as well as familiarity with the day-to-day business of providing healthcare. It is crucial to identify the processes in the healthcare sector that would most benefit from the support of information technology. This study is focused on the analysis …

Towards Knowledge Morphing: A Triangulation Approach To Link Tacit And Explicit Knowledge, Fehmida Hussain, Syed Sibte Raza Abidi, Syed Ali Raza
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
Current knowledge management systems are largely designed to deal with a single knowledge modality. Given the diversity of knowledge modalities that encompass any given topic/problem it is reasonable to demand access and use of all available knowledge, irrespective of their representation modality, to derive a knowledge-mediated solution. This calls for selecting all knowledge elements (represented in different modalities) that are relevant to the solution of the problem at hand. Thus here we pursue the specification and implementation of such a knowledge-mediated solution using a triangulation approach leading to Knowledge Morphing. In this paper we present a tacit-explicit knowledge morphing (TEKM) …
