During the last decade, being involved in preparation of organizations and companies for disastrous and crisis situations, I was revealed to the lack of knowledge and awareness Engineers have in the use and even existence of standards and regulations in their fields. During academic studies a lot of mathematics and physics are supplied to the engineering students enabling them to start their professional...
The new format of the didactic systems for the organization of the training of engineers are considered. These systems are focused on the rapid development of the technical intelligence of the student. In practice, they have shown the high efficiency.
Learning methods and the right curricula are both critical for the development of right competence in individuals. Learning pedagogies practiced by traditional educational centers, universities and corporate training groups are largely based on the knowledge needed to perform various kinds of work/ roles. In the knowledge industry, where both competence and work definitions are intangibles and based...
Universities are major centers of production and dissemination of knowledge. Because of proximity of knowledge to decisions more data can improve the performance and quality of service organizations. On the other hand, Knowledge management is a systematic issue Categories that successful implementation requires a pathology and holistic approach to organizational various factors. In this paper, we...
Knowledge management is all about creating an environment where information can be readily shared. The ability to understand and inventory tacit knowledge and to be able to manage and deliver that information to those who need it when they need it is achievable today. Creating a learning organization culture is critical. Using systems which can understand the learner's needs, assess prior knowledge,...
In this article, analyses on the current situations of network courses platform have been conducted as well as problems of teachers and students emerged during the implementation process of network courses have been summarized. Starting from the perspective of ensuring teachers can gain access of user mood and method of application, guidance by system to teaching contents can be strengthened. Certain...
This article explains the meaning and the features of university library knowledge services(KS), and analyzes the situation of KS in Chinese university libraries, points out the problems, and proposes to carry out subject characteristics knowledge services, innovate the service forms, share the resources, improve the management systems, develop the service fields and other optimization strategies.
M&A and supply chain management are the major trends of enterprise management in the 21st century. That how to achieve synergy after M&A through the supply chain integration is of great significance for the enterprises to gain a competitive advantage and achieve its strategic goals.

This research investigates the use of knowledge structures (aka mental models) and Pathfinder network graph analysis techniques to assess the acquisition of enterprise resource planning (ERP) system business process knowledge. Two different ERP learning models are compared: the more traditional ERP learning model executed in a static business environment focusing on conveying procedural ERP application...
In this paper a unified architecture is proposed for the new emerging concept of knowledge networks. This architecture is based on a multi-aspect view to the problem of establishing such a network in organizations. By integrating infrastructure, knowledge and business layers mounted on two aspects of human-based and organizational supportive conditions in a unified framework, we proposed a novel architecture...
The paper describes role of social networking structures as a knowledge management tool in different organizational environments. Activities of networks within an organization are considered as a knowledge management mechanism, which enables creation and sharing of knowledge. Therefore, networks could shape knowledge of an organization and create added value. Each network is formed around an overriding...
The knowledge-sharing in university research and innovation teams is a systematic process. Under particular environment, the process between the input of original knowledge and the output of new knowledge is an organic system in which individual explicit knowledge, individual tacit knowledge, team explicit knowledge and team tacit knowledge intersect and exchange with each other.
Current ABET criteria expects the curricular content of engineering programs to include a general education component that is consistent with their objectives. This is usually accomplished by having students take non-technical courses in humanities and social science. The benefits of having engineering students take courses in humanities and social sciences cannot be overstated as these courses strongly...
Inter-organizational knowledge share can greatly improve enterprises' competition advantage. However, in the process of knowledge share there also exist some risks from potential opportunism, knowledge specificity, cultural diversity. But, the relation capital can control relation risk and performance risk to some degree, compensating for weak points of formal contracts in knowledge share.
