Selected Honors & Awards
“For his prolific and exceptional research, teaching, and service in the disciplines of information
systems and knowledge management, particularly his seminal contributions in developing the
decision support system field, creating basic concepts of knowledge management, introducing
knowledge-based decision support systems, advancing methods for collaborative ontological
engineering, devising knowledge-based organization architecture, and creating the knowledge
chain theory and a behavior-based technique for measuring knowledge distribution channels.”

Selected Evidence of Scholarly Contributions
One of the eleven canonical authors identified for the knowledge management field across a
30-year period (co-citation analysis of the 7,089 KM articles in journals tracked in Web of Science
from 1986-2015: González-Valiente, Santos, Arencibia-Jorge, Journal of Data and Information
Science 4(2) 2019). The other ten canonical authors are HA Simon, ME Porter, DJ Teece, GP
Huber, GA Hedlund, B Kogut, JC Spender, E Von Hippel, RR Nelson, and I Nonaka. The analysis
finds these eleven to be KM’s “canonical authors. They constitute the most classical and influential
authors, whose contributions have served to set the body of knowledge of KM over the years.”

Review: “The combined volumes of Handbook on Decision Support Systems are like
the Rosetta Stone for decision support systems….authors…are the “who’s who” of DSS
researchers.…each chapter is crisp and insightful…present DSS topics with much detail
and vigor….excellent job in bringing theory and practice together for researchers,
students, and business professionals….exceptional strength of these books comes from
their organization into well-integrated themes…all chapters are fresh and up-to-
date….cleverly designed…very academic in their design and very practical in their
delivery”

Review: “Commendably, the DSS focus of the Handbook is well maintained …. Equally
commendably however, it pursues diverse dimensions and perspectives to DSS … a
strength of the book is that it pursues its mission in an eclectic manner…. This is a
broad ranging Handbook which could be very usefully employed in support of DSS
teaching and research across a range of undergraduate or postgraduate academic
programmes…. Overall, a distinctive and worthwhile addition to DSS resources.”

Knowledge Matters, Soft cover edition with content update, Berlin: Springer-Verlag, ISBN
978-3-540-20005-5.
Review: One of the four KM books (out of hundreds) designated as a “Gold Star
Selection - a must on every self-respecting KMers bookshelf” … the “two volume set
brings together in one place many original contributions … subjects cover the full gamut
of knowledge management including the nature of knowledge, knowledge as an
organisational resource, knowledge processing, technologies and strategies… the
authoritative content makes this an indispensable reference for the serious practitioner”
D. Skyrme, (D.Phil, Oxford), Knowledge Connections January, 2008.
Review: "a wealth of contributions ... put into a coherent structure ... an
invaluable reference that brings the whole gamut of KM into one title."
David Skyrme (D.Phil, Oxford), Editor, Knowledge Digest, 2002
Review: "In the last issue…, I introduced this excellent and comprehensive two-volume
tome and focused on Volume I …. I gave the Handbook on KM my strongest
recommendation … content will be at least referenced, if not in fact woven into the new,
enriched eCKMTM curriculum … Personally, I can give no higher compliment. Volume II
… maintains the content and quality standard I witnessed in Volume I.... Want to
substantially increase your knowledge of KM and ability to communicate its merits…?
Want to create the knowledge imperative in your organization and increase the
likelihood of the success of your KM initiatives and your own career? Master the
contents of the Handbook on KM, Volumes I and II."
Douglas Weidner, Executive Director, In Thought & Practice, December 2003

Review: "discuss state of the art from a business perspective…a first-rate introduction
to what all of the shouting is about…you will be well rewarded for the time spent. The
writing is good and the book is easy to follow…authors rightly point out that business
expert systems rules must be supplemented by the collective wisdom of the
organization and that the inference engine must be able to process more than just
formal rules…This is not generally understood …. The book contains many other useful
insights:…"

Review: “An excellent and much needed reference book on database management
using microcomputers … is practical and oriented toward business application
development using commercially available DBMSs … authors support ‘learn-by-doing
experiences,’ so they selected for use in discussion a particular micro DBMS, MDBS
created by Micro Data Base Systems …. well organized and contains a wealth of
information. … The style is clear, the format sound, and the diagrams instructive. ….is
more practical and more oriented toward microcomputers than David M. Kroenke's
Database Processing … Strongly recommended for academic libraries.”
American Library Association, 1985.
Review: “We tend to think of the personal computer and microworld as a simpler,
often less sophisticated, version of mainframe computing…. this is not necessarily true…
In this book… the focus is on microcomputers. The most significant aspect of the micro
orientation is the use of MDBS as the prime example of a data management system.
This particular package is in fairly widespread use, and, more importantly, exhibits most
of the features and capabilities of a mainframe DBMS…. book is well written and
contains many useful examples…”

Review: "The explanations are very good, with plenty of narrative with the
algebra…The book…will appeal to O.R. and computer departments who are closely
involved in the development of large systems. The book…is full of interesting concepts
and ideas."

SENIOR TECHNICAL CONSULTANT, Micro Data Base Systems Incorporated 1983 - 1988
Conceived and designed the first commercial system development tool integrating expert system
and conventional business computing capabilities: GURU.
IEEE Xplore said “The only currently available integrated expert system is Guru from mdbs.
Entering the market in November of 1985, Guru caused quite a stir. It has a rule-based system,
a spreadsheet, a database, a word processor, and a communications package – all well
integrated.”
For the year 1986, Inc. Magazine ranked the company #196 on its list of the 500 fastest-
growing private companies in America (revenue $13,000,000; employees 166).

VICE PRESIDENT, TECHNICAL SUPPORT DIVISION, Micro Data Base Systems Incorporated and
International Software Enterprises (on leave from University of Illinois and Purdue University) 1980-1983
Responsible for technical aspects of the company's software design, marketing, customer
support, system documentation, and training seminars
Conceived and designed the first large-scale, integrated, commercial tool for knowledge
management: KnowledgeMan
Contributed to the design and implementation of the first sophisticated commercial database
management system for microcomputers: MDBS.
PC Magazine called this software "by far the most complete and flexible database
management system for micros..."
Also, conducted micro-database management training seminars in the U.S. and Europe.
