Description
E-knowledge marketplaces are Internet-marketplaces where sellers of knowledge assets can be matched with potential buyers of such assets. This area can be considered as a fusion of e-knowledge management and e-business at the intersection of B2B e-commerce. An e-knowledge market can be a virtual and digital community hub for linking the suppliers and buyers of ideas and channelling knowledge energy in many purposeful, innovative, and valuable directions

    The overall objective of the INKASS ("Intelligent Knowledge Asset Sharing and Trading") project is to develop an intelligent Internet-based marketplace of knowledge assets. At the core of our technological approach stands a case-based reasoning approach for ascertaining knowledge assets for relevant user contexts and a comprehensive metadata description of information objects which represent tradeable knowledge products. The research approach and the e-marketplace developed for a management consultancy is discussed in its first version in this paper

    This paper addresses the area that is at the intersection of Knowledge Management and Electronic Commerce. This area refers to the exchange and trade of explicit and implicit knowledge at an inter-organisational level. Electronic knowledge marketplaces are currently emerging to address the opportunities and risks found in the purchase and selling of knowledge at the business-to-business (B2B) environment, the need for supporting long-lasting relationships of knowledge exchange and the requirement for facilitating virtual community contexts where knowledge seekers can find suitable knowledge providers and knowledge can advertise and sell their available knowledge. The paper describes the business challenges associated with the design of Internet-based knowledge marketplace. INKASS, a European IST project, has stimulated this work and has provided real-life verification on the arguments raised and on the positions adopted herein

    The overall objective of the INKASS ("Intelligent Knowledge Asset Sharing and Trading") project is to develop an intelligent Internet-based marketplace of knowledge assets. More specifically, the project aims: (1) To develop and validate intelligent agent-based and ontology-enabled knowledge trading tools for facilitating automatic transactions in the marketplace and supporting semantic mappings between sellers' provisions and buyers' needs, (2) To develop and validate innovative business models for a virtual knowledge marketplace, and (3) To apply, validate and exploit the INKASS system as an electronic marketplace for knowledge assets that assists European SMEs in meeting their knowledge needs in specific business management and engineering areas. At the core of our technological approach stands a comprehensive metadata description of information objects which represent tradeable knowledge assets. The structure of these metadata frames is determined by the INKASS Information Ontology which is discussed in its first version in this paper
