Description Knowledge, Groupware, and the Internet details the convergence of modern knowledge management theory and emerging computer technologies,

and the Internet. These critical technologies help an organization evolve from individual to group knowledge, quickly make tacit knowledge

the people and technologies that define effective knowledge management.
