“…For mobile banking service providers, coexistence in the same geographical region can be favourable for knowledge and local cultural sharing, facilitating interaction and synergies resulting in a facilitating collective learning (Zhao & de Pablos, 2011), positively contributing to reinforce the acceptance over time. Understanding how it evolves can be an interesting field of research.…”

“…This kind of initiative had a powerful impact on: (i) the release of several mobile payments services (bank to telecom to consumer) launched in the last years, such as Mozambican mKesk and m-Pesa, Kenyan m-Pesa, and South African Wizzit, and (ii) the development of the traditional mobile banking services (direct bank to consumer) provided by banks such as Mozambican BancoTerra (TerraMovel) and MozaBank (Mozamobile), Kenyan Bank of Africa (b-web), and South African Standard Bank (Standard Bank mobile). Regional innovation, knowledge and learning development strategies influenced, motivated innovation and learning abilities, allowing local enterprises to obtain competiveness (Zhao & de Pablos, 2011), as easily seen in the mobile banking service providers in these African countries.…”

User profiles in collaborative filtering (CF) recommendation technique are built based on ratings given by users on a set of items. The most eminent shortcoming of the CF technique is the sparsity problem. This problem refers to the low ratio of rated items by users to the total number of available items; hence the quality of recommendation will be affected. Most researchers use implicit data as a solution for sparsity problem, to decrease the dependency of CF technique on the user's rating and this term is more common in this field. The aim of this research is to aggregate evidence on state of research and practice of CF and implicit data applying systematic literature review (SLR) which is a method for evidence-based software engineering (EBSE). EBSE has the potential value for synthesizing evidence and make this evidence available to practitioners and researchers with providing the best references and appropriate software engineering solutions for sparsity problem. We executed the standard systematic literature review method using a manual search in 5 prestigious databases and 38 studies were finally included for analyzing. This paper follows manifestation of Kitchenham's SLR guidelines and describes in a great detail the process of selecting and analyzing research papers. This paper is first academic systematic literature review of CF technique along with implicit data from user behaviors and activities to aggregate existing evidence as a synthesis of best quality scientific studies. The 38 research papers are categorized into eleven application fields (movie, shopping, books, Social systems, music and others) and six data mining techniques (dimensionality reduction, association rule, heuristic methods and other). According to the review results, neighborhood formation is a relevant aspect of CF and it can be improved with the use of user-item preference matrix as implicit feedback mechanism, the most common domains of CF are in e-commerce and movie software applications.

“…Henceforth, the acquisition of new knowledge may affect how work is performed within firms and collaborative networks. However, some authors claim that the links between PM and KM in the context of industrial clusters have been poorly addressed in the specialized literature (Brandt et al, 2009;Zhao & Pablos, 2011). Because the relationship between both concepts seems to be bidirectional, two propositions are put forward to analyse how performance and knowledge management relate within clusters:…”

“…Brandt et al (2009) suggest that network managers should actively promote cooperation and bridge gaps to increase the circulation of knowledge. Zhao & Pablos (2011) urge that regional KM should be viewed from the perspective of management sciences. This means that KM in regional settings should involve management functions such as planning, control and leadership.…”

The concept of industrial clustering has been studied in-depth by policy makers and researchers from many fields, mainly due to the competitive advantages it may bring to regional economies. Companies often take part in collaborative initiatives with local partners while also taking advantage of knowledge spillovers to benefit from locating in a cluster. Thus, Knowledge Management (KM) and Performance Management (PM) have become relevant topics for policy makers and cluster associations when undertaking collaborative initiatives. Taking this into account, this paper aims to explore the interplay between both topics using a case study conducted in a collaborative network formed within a cluster. The results show that KM should be acknowledged as a formal area of cluster management so that PM practices can support knowledge-oriented initiatives and therefore make better use of the new knowledge created. Furthermore, tacit and explicit knowledge resulting from PM practices needs to be stored and disseminated throughout the cluster as a way of improving managerial practices and regional strategic direction.
