Pacific Island workers contribute significantly to Australiaʼs agriculture and food security through the Seasonal Worker Programme (SWP). Previous studies show economic benefits of SWP both Australian agro-industries workers. However, there are limited about agricultural knowledge exchange that occurs via circular migration enabled by SWP, experiences employers as holders. With merged into Aust...

Knowledge sharing between employees has long been viewed as a major driver of firm productivity growth, and the strength spill-overs within firms is common measure knowledge sharing. Using data from three Bangladeshi garment factories, I first find that are stronger organizational sub-divisions factories than across. then show management intervention routinely brought together workers producing...

When does knowledge transfer benefit performance? Combining field data from a global consulting firm with an agent-based model, we examine how efforts to supplement one’s knowledge from coworkers interact with individual, organizational, and environmental characteristics to impact organizational performance. We find that once cost and interpersonal exchange are included in the analysis, the imp...

One of the critical issues determining the successful development of information systems is what might be described as the communication gap between the user group and the IS development group that occurs during the system analysis phase. This gap, we contend, stems from the lack of understanding of one another’s domain knowledge without for example, a common vocabulary it is difficult to excha...

This paper reports an experiment in which subjects buy and sell lotteries in repeated markets under symmetric and asymmetric information. In the markets with asymmetric information a minority of the subjects, the informed, were given extra information about the lottery’s payout, so had an informational advantage over the majority, the uninformed. In the markets with symmetric information none o...

Resolving inconsistency in knowledge-integration systems is a major issue, especially when interlinking heterogeneous, autonomous sources. The latter can be done using a multi-context system, also in presence of non-monotonicity. Recent work considered diagnosis and explanation of inconsistency in such systems in terms of faulty information exchange. To discriminate between different solutions,...
