The Knowledge Management (KM) process is presented through the three components of Nonaka-Takeuchi theory, using methodology intertwined multiple case studies on a sample 10 Colombian companies: Five Large Businesses (LBs) and Small Medium-sized (SMBs). objective was to determine level KM compare both groups, based theory: four modes (4MDs), five conditions (5CDs), phases (5PSs). main findings ...

in relation to the learning process in 1991 by Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger (1991) at the Institute for Research on Learning as part of an attempt to “rethink learning.” In 1998, Wenger extended this concept and applied it to other contexts, including organizational settings (Wenger, 1998). Around 1991, Nonaka began to present his theories of knowledge management to explain the role of knowledg...

Knowledge science is a problem-oriented interdisciplinary field that takes as its subject the modeling of the knowledge creation process and its application, and carries out research in such disciplines as knowledge management, management of technology, support for the discovery, synthesis and creation of knowledge, and innovation theory with the aim of constructing a better knowledge-based soc...

BACKGROUND Circadian clocks are synchronized to the solar day via visual and specialized photoreceptors. In Drosophila, CRYPTOCHROME (CRY) is a major photoreceptor that mediates resetting of the circadian clock via light-dependent degradation of the clock protein TIMELESS (TIM). However, in the absence of CRY, this TIM-mediated resetting still occurs in some pacemaker neurons, resulting in sync...

Vietnamese government policy has been one of complete equality opportunity in schools and wider society, both as a commitment to social justice way enhancing the economy nation by facilitating encouraging much greater inclusion women economic activity.

Knowledge creation is nowadays a major issue for firms that want to be competitive. We are in a new era, where knowledge plays a dynamic role in innovation processes and corporate performance. The nature of the firm is changing: Kogut & Zander (1996) define firms as social communities specialized in knowledge transfer and creation. What makes firms superior to markets is not their capacity for ...

Visually-assisted optical indoor wireless local area network (LAN) is promising not only for high-speed but for offering intuitive user interface. Free-space optical communications (FSOC)(Jahns, 1994) are a key technology to create image-based ultra-fast wireless communication systems of the future. Compared with radio-frequency (RF) electromagnetic waves, the outstanding features of free-space...

TO THE EDITOR: With great interest, I read Dr. Nonaka’s, “Comparative study of 2 different questionnaires in Japanese patients: the quality of life and utility evaluation survey technology questionnaire (QUEST) versus the frequency scale for the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (FSSG).” I totally agree the miscomprehensions due to the difficulty of the questions are imp...

The Theory of Knowledge Creation generally suggests that tacit and explicit knowledge are converted through the four modes known as the SECI Model (Nonaka 1991; Nonaka & Takeuchi 1995). In applications development, the knowledge conversions are mobilized through the use of tools (video conference, development editor) and practices (code review, design patterns, pair programming) (Henninger 1997...

Role of technology and reusability on the knowledge management and knowledge transformation has been analyzed by considering the extended model of Nonaka and Takeuchi which includes the knowledge reuse in the three dimensional environment. Knowledge transformation has been further refined (and boosted) to get the more qualitative and quantitative knowledge by applying the concept of knowledge r...
