Computer science The evolvement of information and communication technology (ICT) gave the organization an opportunity to enhance their services and productivity.

Knowledge management is a process of organizing, identifying, and sharing knowledge either tacit or explicit experience, and expertise that typically resides within individuals in an organization.

The purpose of this research is to help foreign postgraduate international students to overcome their academic and non academic problems during their study at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM).

The data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0. These findings were then incorporated in the form of a prototype web-based Knowledge Sharing Portal. In structuring the portal prototype, the portal was developed using PHP, Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, My SQL, and Rational Rose. Due to the development of this portal, it is expected to gain a lot of benefits in solving the community members problems and enhance and facilitate knowledge sharing among the students. 2009-10 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/18381/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/18381/5/NadhmiAbdulJalilMFSKSM2009.pdf application/pdf en public http://dms.library.utm.my:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:72693?site_name=Restricted Repository masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Computer Science and Information System Faculty of Computer Science and Information System
