He then began to disseminate his findings amongst other European scholars, forming an early network of knowledge sharing "molti amici in molti luoghi" (many friends in many places), including Charles de l'Écluse (Clusius) (1526 – 1609) at Montpellier and Jean de Brancion at Malines.
270 knowledge workers of knowledge-based organisations were surveyed about their perceptions of knowledge sharing capability, and knowledge sharing success.
The results show that knowledge sharing is a coordination game with multiple equilibria, reflecting the fragility of knowledge sharing between innovators with conflicting interests.
The experimental results demonstrate important asymmetries in the fragility of knowledge sharing and, in some situations, more knowledge sharing than theoretically predicted.
Furthermore, the specific epistemic relationships we develop with others require that certain forms of knowledge be shared with some, but not others, calling into question any idea that the only epistemic value is the acquisition of knowledge for oneself and others (Townley 2003, 2011; Grasswick 2011).
It should come as no surprise: at the heart of open source is fast-paced innovation in the form of collaboration and knowledge sharing.
Professional virtual communities (PVCs), which are formed on the Internet, are expected to serve the needs of members for communication, information, and knowledge sharing.
The concept of "digital literacies" emphasizes the importance of skills in reading, analyzing, and creating digital media texts as essential to the new forms of knowledge acquisition and information sharing in the networked age.
