This study is an exploratory investigation of the enabling roles of knowledge management for integrated circuit (IC) Designers, Distributors, and Manufacturers. This study explores the different enabling roles in terms of knowledge creation, storage/retrieval, transfer and application when businesses implement knowledge management in upstream, midstream, and downstream firms in the IC industry. Three cases, Winbond, Worldpeace, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) were studied and analyzed systemically to illustrate the findings and insights in this study. The findings in this study point out that IC designers may focus more on knowledge storage, while IC distributors pay more attention to knowledge application and IC Manufacturers emphasize knowledge creation. The necessity to implement knowledge management in the distribution industry is also emphasized in this study. Moreover, the reasons for the different enabling roles are presented in the ‘Insights from Case Studies’ section of the paper.

Healthcare is a knowledge-intensive service provided by professionals, such as medical doctors, nurses, and pharmacists. Clinical-pathways are used by many healthcare organisations (HCOs) as a tool for performing the healthcare process, sharing and utilising knowledge from different professionals. In this paper, case studies were performed at two HCOs that use clinical-pathways actively in the healthcare process. Theoretical model construction, sharing, utilisation, and creation of the knowledge by different professionals, were tested by the case study of two HCOs which use clinical pathways actively. The theoretical model was a knowledge creation model which creates new knowledge continuously. In this theoretical model, clinical-pathways are suggested to be an effective tool for knowledge management in healthcare.

Alih daya (outsourcing) sistem informasi atau sering kali disebut sebagai pengadaan sistem informasi dapat diartikan sebagai pengalihan sebagian atau seluruhnya fungsi sistem informasi dari sebuah organisasi kepada penyedia layanan eksternal, untuk memperoleh keuntungan ekonomi, teknologi dan strategis. Namun mendapatkan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi bukanlah hal yang mudah; terdapat beberapa faktor yang harus diperhatikan untuk mendapatkan keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsourcing sistem informasi, sehingga suatu organisasi dapat dikatakan berhasil dalam outsourcing sistem informasinya. Di lain pihak, penerapan Knowledge Management (KM) diartikan sebagai sebuah proses dari Knowledge Management yang disebut siklus pengetahuan (knowledge cycle), dimana terdapat kegiatan pembuatan (creation), penyebaran (sharing), dan penggunaan (application) pengetahuan didalamnya. Pada kebanyakan organisasi, KM dianggap sebagai faktor utama untuk memperoleh dan mendukung keunggulan bersaing. Selanjutnya, pengetahuan juga dianggap sebagai faktor sangat penting dalam keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji hubungan antara penerapan Knowledge Management (knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, dan knowledge application) pada keberhasilan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui faktor penentu pengadaan sistem informasi (kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 66 manajer proyek sistem informasi pada sektor telekomunikasi di Indonesia. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa knowledge application sebagai tahap akhir pada penerapan KM memberikan pengaruh signifikan terhadap kesuksesan outsourcing sistem informasi melalui kualitas komunikasi dan kualitas kerjasama. Pada akhirnya, menyediakan model penerapan knowledge management dapat digunakan sebagai salah satu panduan bagi organisasi dalam melakukan outsourcing sistem informasi untuk mencapai kesuksesan dan memperoleh keseluruhan keuntungan dari outsorcing sistem informasi tersebut.

How can practices of knowledge management (KM) enable organizational learning to occur and then lead toward a learning organization? We seek the answer to this question by exploring three cases, Winbond, Worldpeace, and TSMC, chosen respectively from upstream, midstream, and downstream firms in the IC industry in Taiwan. We studied KM practices focusing on aspects of knowledge creation, storage/retrieval, transfer and application. Results showed that KM may play different enabling roles among IC designer, distributor and manufacturer. In this study it was found that IC designers may focus more on knowledge storage, while IC distributors pay more attention to knowledge application, and IC manufacturers emphasize knowledge creation.

Collaboration activities for knowledge creation have become popular, due to competition and marketplace demands. Most knowledge management (KM) has focused on organizational knowledge application and development. There is a lack of a framework on KM to discuss how people have efficient behaviors to cooperate with others for knowledge creation. This paper presents a service communication process based on a service-centered view to describe how people streamline behaviors for knowledge creation to reach a joint goal in collaboration through communications. The proposed framework is demonstrated by business-to-business collaboration cases.

Web 2.0 and Knowledge Management (KM) have a considerable overlap. It appears promising to apply Web 2.0 applications for supporting and improving sharing and creation of knowledge. Yet, little research examining the impact of Web 2.0 on KM has been conducted. This chapter presents research examining the suitability and impact of Web 2.0 applications on KM in organizations. Two extensive exploratory case studies were conducted involving 11 interviews with key personnel of two student-run organizations. It is demonstrated how Web 2.0 applications can be used for a number of KM practices mostly related to the areas of asset management and knowledge creation and innovation. Moreover, they suggest that among all the Web 2.0 principles, User-Generated Content and Unbounded Collaboration exert the biggest influence on creating and sharing of knowledge within organizations. The study contributes to the general understanding of how Web 2.0 and KM practices can be interlinked with each other.

The Relationship

Management research has often overlooked the role of knowledge and knowledge management (KM) in the analysis of organizations and their performance. Also, the literature on KM is short of empirical evidence on the likely interrelatedness of the KM processes. This investigation adopted a research model and used data from 38 Egyptian software firms to examine: (1) the relationship of the KM processes of knowledge acquisition, documentation, transfer, creation, and application to organizational performance, and (2) a number of relationships within the KM processes themselves. The results suggest that knowledge application influences organizational performance, knowledge acquisition and knowledge creation influence knowledge application, and knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer influence knowledge creation. Although they provide a limited support to the research mode, the results signify the value of continued examination and enhancement of such a model.

The manufacturing sector has been profoundly impacted by advances in project management knowledge. As a result, it is critical to optimize service development processes in every project. The aim of this research was to increase cement manufacturing production by applying knowledge management concepts and Knowledge management as a mediator. The study was conducted at various cement manufacturing facilities in Iraq's Kurdistan province. To quantify production improvement in cement companies, the researchers examined four facets of knowledge management: Knowledge creation, Knowledge storage management, knowledge sharing, and Knowledge application, with Knowledge management serving as a mediator. To conduct the current analysis, the researchers used a quantitative research approach in the form of a survey. The questionnaire was randomly distributed to 140 administrative employees of various cement manufacturing companies in the Kurdistan region. The researchers did, however, collect 128completed questionnaires. To assess developed research hypotheses, the study used hierarchical multiple regression analysis and the Sobel test. The findings indicated that all knowledge management elements (Knowledge creation, Knowledge storage development, knowledge sharing, and Knowledge application) had a clear and important positive relationship with increased production at carpet manufacturers in Iraq's Kurdistan region. Additionally, the findings indicated that all knowledge management concepts with a mediator (project management development program) had an indirect positive and important relationship with increased production at cement manufacturing facilities in Iraq's Kurdistan region.
