KP-Lab is an EU Integrated Project envisioning a learning system that facilitates innovative practices of sharing, creating and working with knowledge in education and workplaces. The project exploits a novel pedagogical view, the knowledgecreation metaphor of learning. According to such “trialogical” approach, cognition arises through collaborative work in systematically developing shared “kno...

Knowledge sharing and reuse in global software engineering (GSE) are challenging issues. Knowledge management (KM) is specifically impacted because on top of distance, culture and language mismatches, there is also the perceived risk of sharing something which could mean that others could take over some work. Mistrust and protectionism are often the consequence, leading to insufficient reuse. T...

application of up to date knowledge and information, diagnosis, education, sharing, development, utilization and maintenance of knowledge is essential for the organizations, especially physical education organization, to continue their existence. the aim of this research was to study the relationship of knowledge management and its components and human resource performance. the study was descri...

As a complex method for manufacturing and development, concurrent engineering has been studied and implemented extensively in the manufacturing industry to speed up production schedules and to reduce costs. One of the tools used in concurrent engineering is computer-aided design or CAD in short. CAD applications in multifunctional knowledge distribution refer to the use of CAD to provide inform...

This paper surveys the role ontologies might play in the whole software development life cycle. Use of ontologies in each phase of software development yields competitive advantage over traditional approach enabling greater information sharing and reuse. In this survey paper, we present a concise description of various ontology-based approaches in Software Engineering ordered by their position ...

This paper presents a research in progress on the use of knowledge engineering and knowledge management techniques for the development of a strategic approach for the transfer of professional know-how. This transfer is based on the design of devices for sharing and learning clearly identified knowledge in the oil industry domains. This work is based on a pilot study which was carried out in the...

features within the organization are vital part of its success; therefore, more and more to identify these features and how they impact on the output of the rapidly changing environment of today, it seems imperative. guided by the knowledge of the organization is the function of a human and organizational culture. knowledge management is the practice of corporate culture and how to build a cult...
