Problem oriented systems of data integration and data exchanging may be created in the structures of Open semi-Direct Communication based on Multimedia Information Centres: OsDC-MIC. Appropriately structured data resources – D and problem knowledge – PK are their resources. D resources are documents of primary information (source documents) in the form of computer files. The ways of creating D resources are defined by technologies of digitalization, network storing and flow of documents (scanning, indexing, storing, displaying and archiving). The structure of PK resources results from the understanding of knowledge as an interpretation of D resources and representing this interpretation as a knowledge used and generated in human processes of thinking and decision making. PK is thus a functional notion, and PK resources are not only technologies of D resources  storing and an access to problem-oriented information (documents from D resources), but also they are the state of human mind (the state resulting from interpretation of D resources), all of them put into a PK scheme (association models) created by human beings (human factors of VAO technologies). In the virtual environment of information PK resources may be distinguished, representing the possible categories of PK schemas, including: HK – human knowledge, TGK- thematic group knowledge, VOK –  virtual organization knowledge, ISK - information society knowledge.

 

Mutual (interactive) exchange of D and PK resources is the basis of a synthesis of  the virtual D&PK networks: eD&PKN – environment of the various VAO systems. Various structures of eD&PKN become the virtual information environment. A common information space is established - a grid environment of network application to integrate resources D and  to obtain PK. We can speak about virtual systems of subject-related information (personal, group-related, etc.). Those systems may be used to coordinate partnership and cooperative activities in the emerging structures of digital activities organization within the information society.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

 

Examples of experimental solutions are: a virtual system of personal information, a virtual system of designers information. Those examples are based on the concept of creating a portfolio for source documents of personal achievements and on creating keys to access to information problem oriented (PK-related information).
