To realise the potential of the VC, it is neces- sary to cultivate within it good group cohesion and vitality. Using empirical and experimental research methods, this study explores the ef- fect of users' trust in the VC Platform (VCP) on group cohesion and vitality and how brand and perceived privacy security can affect us- ers' trust in the VC. The research results indi- cate that the brand of the VCP can directly af- fect users' trust in the VC, and can also influe- nce it indirectly through users' perceived pri- vacy protection and perceived security protec- tion. Further, this study also confu'ms that the performance of the VC (group cohesion and vitality) is significantly affected by users' trust in the VC. The results of this study can provide theoretical guidance for internet companies to maintain and enhance the value of VCs.展开更多

Research, however,shows that many virtual CoPs do not achieve their expected potential because online interaction among healthcare professionals is generally low. Focusing on health visitors, who are UK qualified midwives or nurses who have undertaken additional qualifications as specialist public health workers in the community, the paper examines the factors that influence online interaction among health visitors collaborating to share knowledge and experience in a virtual CoP. The paper makes suggestions for how to improve online interaction among health professionals in virtual CoPs by increasing the size of membership in order to take advantage of both posting and viewing contributions, facilitating moderation to improve networking among geographically dispersed members groups and im-proving the topic relevance in order to stimulate contributions.展开更多

The QoS is evaluated in terms of Website design, reliability, responsiveness, trust, personalization, and information quality. The cognitive QoS and the QoS evaluated by assessors are compared to analyze which QoS of the VKC should be improved urgently and which indicators keep leading positions, and to assist administrators of the VKC on measuring and understanding current status and implementation effect of the QoS.展开更多

Therefore, this paper summarizes the behavior and influencing factors of knowledge sharing in virtual community through literature research and investigation and research. At the same time, through the research of incentive theory, the author has obtained the incentive method and content of knowledge sharing, and established the incentive mechanism. The bright spot is to perfect the theory of knowledge sharing while transforming theory into practice, and to provide suggestions for the development of incentive mechanism of virtual community.展开更多

The virtual community of foreign language leaming can improve the sense of language authenticity in foreign language learning and improve the quality of foreign language teaching. A method of building a virtual community for foreign language learning is proposed based on data mining technology, data acquisition and feature preprocessing model for building semantic vocabulary of foreign language learning is constructed, the linguistic environment characteristics of the semantic vocabulary data of foreign language learning is analyzed, and the semantic noumenon structure model is obtained. Fuzzy clustering method is used for vocabulary clustering and comprehensive retrieval in the virtual community of foreign language learning, the performance of vocabulary classification in foreign language learning is improved, the adaptive semantic information fusion method is used to realize the vocabulary data mining in the virtual community of foreign language learning, information retrieval and access scheduling for virtual communities in foreign language learning are realized based on data mining results. The simulation results show that the accuracy of foreign language vocabulary retrieval is good, improve the efficiency of foreign language learning.展开更多
