This study aims to investigate the status of the knowledge sharing attitude and the existing knowledge sharing barriers in Sri Lankan software companies. The Theory of Planned Behaviour is applied as the basis of this study and assessed ten hypothesized associations among dependent variable; attitude for knowledge sharing (AT); and independent variables; motivation and willingness (MW), trust among individuals (TR), time (T), power relationship (PR), expected reciprocity (ER), communication skills (CS), organizational culture and structure (OS), leadership (LD), reward systems (RS), and technological infrastructure (TI). Measurement model analysis, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were used to analyse the data. The seven factors, which have been identified to have a potentially high significance with knowledge sharing attitude were then considered as the barrier factors, which indicate a high possibility to influence a negative impact on the knowledge-sharing attitude. Meanwhile, acquisition growth was identified to have the highest knowledge-sharing attitude, and the network growth was identified to have the least favourable attitude for knowledge sharing. Findings provide convincing evidence of lack of time, improper organizational structures, PR, language and ER as the main barriers associated with knowledge sharing in software companies. The study suggests some solutions to overcome these barriers and directions for future researchers to conduct their studies.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Knowl.

However, due to collection and extraction challenges, data in many feeds, embedded comments, reviews and testimonials are inaccessible as a generic data source. This paper incorporates Knowledge Management framework as a paradigm for knowledge management and data value extraction. This framework embodies solutions to unlock the potential of UGC as a rich, real-time data source for analytical applications. The contributions described in this paper are threefold. Firstly, a method for automatically navigating pagination systems to expose UGC for collection is presented. This is evaluated using browser emulation integrated with dynamic data collection. Secondly, a new method for collecting social data without any a priori knowledge of the sites is introduced. Finally, a new testbed is developed to reflect the current state of internet sites and shared publicly to encourage future research. The discussion benchmarks the new algorithm alongside existing data extraction techniques and provides evidence of the increased amount of UGC data made accessible by the new algorithm.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Customers are becoming more powerful and customer knowledge (CK) can empower organizations and improve their performance. CK is classified as: knowledge FOR customers, ABOUT customers and FROM customers. However, the value of external CK has not fully been recognized, and its impacts have not been fully investigated. Thus, the present research aims to empirically assess the impact of acquiring each type. Researchers analyzed 63 Mexican organizations, results show that overall acquisition of CK is significantly positively linked to business processes benefits, employees benefits, products benefits, customers benefits, finance benefits and market benefits. However, by assessing the direct impacts of the three types of knowledge on these, demonstrated that acquisition of knowledge about customers significantly positively linked with employees benefits, customers benefits, finance benefits and market benefits.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

This article examines the relation between knowledge sharing and three dimensions of organizational performance: innovativeness, financial performance and the use of human recourses. The study uses data from a sample of 112 employees from the Czech Republic. The findings provide evidence that knowledge sharing is significantly related to organizational innovativeness, employees' engagement, and the perceived benefits of knowledge sharing. However, there was no statistically significant correlation between knowledge sharing and financial performance. The results highlight that if a competitive advantage is built on innovativeness, then bilateral communication between supervisors and their subordinates, including the communication of the top management's intentions and employees' ideas, is essential because it facilitates knowledge sharing among employees.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

It observes firms in Science and Technology Parks (STPs) and other spaces of a regional innovation system. It focuses on the effects that location has in establishing diversified interactions, in comparison with other firm traits usually associated to drawing from universities. It also provides evidence on the importance of certain qualities of space, including closeness to universities and existence of institutions specialized on knowledge transfer services. The empirical basis is a face-to-face survey to 737 firms in the regional innovation system of Andalusia, Spain. Descriptive analysis and regression models have been used in order to detect specific influences on five key dimensions of knowledge transfer. The results show that being located in a STP has an influence only on developing informal contacts and human resources training. In contrast, other characteristics related to the absorptive capacities of the firm have an influence on engaging in R&D collaboration and commercialization. The conclusions and policy implications suggest that both the kind of firms and the interface institutions located in a STP make a difference when promoting knowledge transfer with local universities.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

In response to this call, this article represents a first step in addressing this need. It provided a basic methodology for building a craft memory which will be considered as a benchmark for handicraft knowledge preservation. The study focuses on identifying the most critical and vulnerable know-how and modelling the knowledge which needs to be retained. To do so, a methodological framework is proposed and validated through a case study on the Moroccan zellige craft. The methods used here are derived from the world of Knowledge Management (KM) and Knowledge Engineering (KE); in particular, MASK method, GAMETH and M3C. Nevertheless, their systematic application is not perfectly adapted, it needs to be in accordance to the craft characteristics and the artisan's profile which is the key point of the current study.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

A sample of 429 employees from four knowledge base industries - Audio & Video, Machinery Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical and Telecom - was surveyed on the four constructs. A Hierarchical Regression method was used to determine whether KBPO and OBPO had direct effects on knowledge hiding, or indirect effects via Territoriality. The authors also tested whether OBPO moderated the indirect positive effect of KBPO on knowledge hiding. It has been found that KBPO has indirect effect on knowledge hiding behavior which is mediated by Territoriality in various knowledge base sectors except the Telecom Industry. Territoriality is antecedent to knowledge hiding in all knowledge base industries in India. OBPO does not have any direct or indirect effect on knowledge hiding but moderates positively the relationship between KBPO and knowledge hiding in the Machinery Manufacturing industry.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The authors find that this newly-evolved discipline can be viewed through the lens of a new mode of knowledge production and is characterized by transdisciplinarity collaboration with the private sector and increased accountability. Lessons from this evolution can inform knowledge production in other traditional academic disciplines as well as inform established knowledge management practices grappling with the emerging challenges of Big Data.","PeriodicalId":196147,"journal":{"name":"Int.
