A Design Blueprint for Virtual Knowledge Organizations
2014
United we stand, divided we fall is a well-known saying. We are living in the era of virtual
collaborations. Advancement on conceptual and technological level has enhanced the way people
communicate. Problem nature has also been changed over the time. Today, e-Collaborations are
applied to all domains possible. Extensive data and computing resources are in need and assistance
from human experts is also becoming essential. Existing paradigms and technology are used to form
Virtual Organization (VO), e.g. DataGrid, XSEDE, Facebook, MySpace, etc, but lack of standards
remained a critical issue for last two decades. Our research endeavour focuses on developing a
design blueprint for the Virtual Organization building process. The proposed standardization process is
a two phase activity. The first phase provides requirement analysis and the second phase presents a
Reference Architecture for Virtual Organization (RAVO). This form of standardization is chosen to
accommodate both the technological and paradigm shift. For justification of our approach we
developed the N2Sky system, a VO for the Computational Intelligence community, as a proof of
concept implementation, which caught high attention by the research community.
