Ontology-based Solutions for Knowledge Sharing Issues in Project Organisations

Knowledge sharing is not a new topic in knowledge management research field. Current research focused on the use of formal ontologies for specifying content-specific agreement for a variety of knowledge sharing activities. In this paper, we choose project organisation as our research domain, due to its geographical issues and cultural issues which may affect knowledge sharing activities occurring in dispersed project groups and group members. Provided by a simple notation system, we propose the project organisation knowledge sharing ontology and validate the conceptual model by realizing in Protege-OWL and SPARQL Query Language.
