Summary

Summary

The Internet is quickly moving from a marketing tool in which businesses and organizations promote sales and awareness, to a core element of any information system architecture. The advent of the Internet as a fundamental infrastructure for the delivery of advanced business systems has opened up a wide range of questions for the design and development of such systems. Internet-Based Organizational Memory and Knowledge Management provides a multidisciplinary view of the wide range of ideas on innovative Internet information systems as they related to organizational memory and knowledge. Using the Internet as the primary architectural base, this book presents results and challenges of Internet-based knowledge management systems.
