1. The document discusses how communities shape knowledge structures through media and discusses case studies of disturbances in digital social networks.
2. It presents models for analyzing the evolution of scientific communities and factors that contribute to community success.
3. Methods are proposed for expert finding in communities by analyzing storytelling and recommending experts based on their values and knowledge in the community.

Learning & Knowledge Management Individual / Community Perspective [Nonaka & Takeuchi, 1995] [Ullman, 2004] Semantic Knowledge semiotic concepts documentation Verbal words linguistic data Non-verbal image, icon, index video blogs, diagrams, images, photographies Episodic Knowledge memory of experiencing past episodes web blogs, narratives Declarative Knowledge Procedural Knowledge sensomotoric skills, procedural scripts non-documented routines and operations

5. Hypotheses 1. A semiotic knowledge system is dynamic and it changes every time it is activated. 2. The meaning of a concept is determined by how it interacts with other concepts and by how it can be distinguished from other concepts in the knowledge system. (Positive and Negative Knowledge) 3. The knowledge system is carried by a material medium. The modality of the medium influences knowledge structures.

16. PALADIN Case Study 10 patterns of disturbance over 119 social network instances, 17359 individuals, 215 345 mails Occurs in big networks where the members are distributed in different clusters. 40 No Leader Occurs for members having neighbors with only one contact. 67 Structural Hole Occurs in large networks where disconnected subnetworks exist. Scalability is necessary. 13 Independent Discussions The pattern occurs in the network centered around a member. 37 Leader Spammers can be found often in discussion groups. False positives exist. 86 Spammer Troll occurs very rarely in cultural communities. True negatives exist. 2 Troll Occurs in small networks. The effects of the lack of an answering person must be further checked with content analysis. 61 No Answering Person The existence implies that the network is not popular. 67 No Questioner The existence implies little communication in the network. 76 No Conversationalist The pattern finds out topics which were very important for certain period of time. Scalability is necessary. 22 Burst Remarks Occurrences Pattern
