The way of making knowledge available for others has evolved with time learning. With the coming up of teamwork, people were supposed to work closer together to benefit from the synergy of their joint knowledge. Today's efforts aim at knowledge being shared among large organisations which may be geographically spread over the world and active in different kinds of areas. First cases perform this sharing even among different organisations, e.g. use defined interfaces to mediate knowledge not only inside one specific organisation but to also share parts of it among …show more content…

The second is the provision of assistance for the direct, inter-human KM processes, i.e., communication. The third is the management of generation, distribution, access and use of knowledge coded into arte facts (documents, training, videos etc.), i.e. information
