Abstract

The paper describes a framework for the analysis and implementation of knowledge intensive processes in organizational settings. The paper identifies generic activities in knowledge creation and their collaborative nature and proposes a metamodel for their description. It then describes how the semantics of the metamodel can be  supported using information technology concentrating on support of distributed communities in organizational settings. Such support requires the integration of three research areas, on-line communities, information and knowledge sharing processes. The paper then describes a tool that integrates these three areas.
