Abstract Computing research relies heavily on the rapid dissemination of results. Hence, the formal process of submitting papers to journals has been augmented by other, more rapid, dissemination methods. Originally these involved printed documents, such as technical reports and conference papers. Then researchers started taking advantage of the Internet, putting papers on ftp sites and later on various web sites. But these resources were fragmented. There was no single repository to which researchers from the whole field of computing could submit reports, no single place to search for research results, and no guarantee that information would be archived at the end of a research project. This research paper gives attention to Research Portal (Research Repository or Research Management System) as a typical implementation of a responsive knowledge-based network. 1. Introduction Information and communication technology (ICT) and its various applications have contributed immensely to the remarkable development of the society. A developed economy is as a result of full integration of ICT capabilities. It has led to the development of different web portals and knowledge based networks. The introduction of the portal concept to the Web has opened new possibilities to address some of the issues concerning the personal management of academic information and knowledge. Some of the main issues are the lack of integration, personalization and customization of existing academic information sources and systems. A Web portal can be defined as a Web site that aggregates an array of contents and provides a variety of services including search engines, directories, news, e-mail and chat rooms. Portals have evolved to provide a customized gateway to Web information. A high level of personalization and customization is possible (Melzer 1999; Boye1999). It was felt that the portal concept could be further developed to function as a sophisticated Web interface that can support the task performance (teaching and research) of academics. Knowledge-Based Networking involves the forwarding of messages across a network based on some semantics of the data and associated Meta data of the message content. Knowledge Based Network tends to exploit the semantics of information when delivering information across a distributed environment only to those recipients who

Fig. 6. Graph of Posts against Responses
6. Interpretation
All the charts and graph actually shows that there is a
correlation between researchers, Topics Posted and
Responses. Also there is a relationship between the number
of response received and the topics posted i.e. the relative
response time to any topic posted depends on the how
interesting is the subject of discourse, how it affects the
researchers and the researchers area of specialization. Hence,
the rate at which users of research repository and researchers
forum respond to topic posted is dependent on user’s interest
and specialization with respect to the subject matter.
7. Summary and Conclusion
The study has been all about finding an easier, safer and
educative ways of sharing opinions and interacts with other
researchers in various part of the globe which can easily be
referred to as Researchers Social Interaction (forum). In
addition to chatting, this is a new and dynamics means of
sharing ideas with different researcher all over the world
within a flip of time. It has been discovered that Researcher
Repository or Chat forum is one of the newest way in which
Researcher and book authors of this world use now to reach
out to their colleagues and numerous scholars in order to get
feedback and responses concerning the entire areas of
research topics to share of their idea and experience.
