Knowledge Transfer and Boundary Objects

Abstract

In the last decade, Knowledge management (KM) has evolved to face new threats and challenges. It has been reorganized to facilitate information access. However, the excess of information may affect the understanding and induce the loss of information. Consequently, many scientific projects conflict are unfinished or poorly completed. For this reason, developing a collaborative KM based on transfer knowledge could be an excellent solution to face a specific problem in a scientific field. This article gives us many tools that could be used specifically in a research center and adapted in many scientific areas. The authors first define each main actor contributing to Knowledge sharing in a research center through a design science research approach. Then, they propose how a problem could be managed using the knowledge-sharing creation process. Finally, they summarize steps that could be used to implement collaborative knowledge management.
