Abstract
Knowledge sharing and management is becoming increasingly important in complex environments where business networks work on joint projects or supply chains. Such environments are characterized by continuous change requires knowledge workers to continually propose new solutions and search and develop knowledge to support these solutions. This new knowledge often comes from externally, or from business partners and must be shared in flexible ways. This paper develops a model for gathering and sharing of knowledge using tools that lead to innovative outcomes. It develops a metamodel that allows dynamic reconfiguration of systems, while reassigning knowledge processing functions to meet emerging needs. The paper then illustrates a prototype for implementing the model on the cloud.

Knowledge sharing and management is becoming increasingly important in complex environments where business networks work on joint projects or supply chains. Such environments are characterized by continuous change requires knowledge workers to continually propose new solutions and search and develop knowledge to support these solutions. This new knowledge often comes from externally, or from business partners and must be shared in flexible ways. This paper develops a model for gathering and sharing of knowledge using tools that lead to innovative outcomes. It develops a metamodel that allows dynamic reconfiguration of systems, while reassigning knowledge processing functions to meet emerging needs. The paper then illustrates a prototype for implementing the model on the cloud.
