Abstract:  

In this paper we discuss some of the current issues on the agenda of knowledge management. In particular, we focus on knowledge integration - as a synthesis of best available evidence with expertise of individuals and customer values - pointing out the importance of knowledge management integration with business processes. Also, we discuss about the integration of knowledge management technologies with business intelligence technologies. Knowledge management technologies, while less mature than business intelligence technologies, are now capable of combining today’s content management systems and Web with vastly improved searching and text mining capabilities to derive more value from the explosion of textual information. As a result of that technological integration (BI and KM) there are new approaches that can analyze data and text together, seamlessly. Text integrated with business data can provide valuable insights for improving the quality of business decisions. Finally, we focus on ontologies as artefacts to represent human knowledge and on their role in knowledge integration.
