Abstract :
The increasing use of mobile devices and the Internet has led to new research in telecommunications. The combination of various technologies has created interdisciplinary research groups with engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians and physicists working together. New problems have arisen within these teams. How do we find and exchange the necessary information produced by the entire field working on the same topic but with different views and perspectives? How do we optimize infrastructure and communication as a resource in time and space, and is there one specific way of presenting this piece of knowledge?.
