Abstract

The Internet Medical Consultant – IMC is a knowledge sharing system for physicians. The system’s main purpose is to collect and store the communication between its users and to provide easy retrieval of stored information. The system provides access to human generated knowledge at the point of care. Having that kind of knowledge at hand can be very helpful for physicians when they make decisions. This paper describes the process of knowledge capturing, creating and searching the knowledge archive, for final utilisation of that knowledge at point of care. The process of effective knowledge retrieval is represented more thoroughly by several modifications of algorithms for that purpose.
