Brazilian scientific and technological research in the space area covers a diversity of themes so that its results are applied in several areas, such as earth observation, fire control, climate change, telecommunications, and security, among others. By providing useful products and services for society, economy, and industry, one perceives its relevance and the need to improve Brazil's space research. Thus, given its social and economic importance, this project aims to structure, based on scientific and situated knowledge, a framework that could help to mitigate the knowledge risks identified in the diverse types of organizations and sectors that are part of the Brazilian Space Program. This work in progress will try to address this problem by providing a methodological framework based on Knowledge Governance tools and it is intended to homogenize and mitigate the knowledge risks identified in the diverse types of organizations that are part of the Brazilian Space sector. The methodological approach to be used in the research will be predominantly qualitative, with possible quantitative treatment when analyzing the collected data used to develop the framework. This paper identify, analyze and catalogue, based on the distinct categories found in the literature, the types of knowledge risks observed in organizations …

Precision medicine is an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention that considers individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle for each person. Big data analytics (BDA) using cutting-edge technologies helps to design models that can diagnose, treat and predict diseases. In Ethiopia, healthcare service delivery faces many challenges specifically in relation to prescribing the right medicine to the right patient at the right time. Thus, patients face challenges ranging from staying on treatment plans longer, and then leaving treatment, and finally dying of complications. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to explore the trends, challenges, and opportunities of applying BDA in precision medicine globally and take lessons for Ethiopia through a systematic literature review of 19 peer reviewed articles from five databases. The findings indicated that cancer in general, epilepsy, and systemic diseases altogether are areas currently getting big attention. The challenges are attributed to the nature of health data, failure in collaboration for data sharing, ethical and legal issues, interoperability of systems, poor knowledge skills and culture, and poor infrastructure. Development of modern technologies, experimental technologies and methods, cloud computing, Internet of Things, social networks and Ethiopia’s government initiative to promote private technological firms could be an …

Creativity is no stranger to knowledge management and has helped drive innovation and break new grounds in the management of knowledge. Organisations in general see creativity as a highly desirable outcome and strive to develop it further. This conceptual paper looks at a number of academic writings to identify the role of creativity in knowledge management. A number of common themes are identified, while highlighting the need for further research into the importance of creativity in knowledge management.

Automotive industries in the developed world have strived to improve performance and productivity by incorporating Knowledge Management (KM) practices in their manufacturing processes. This has been attributed to the use of upgraded technological capabilities in the acquisition, sharing, and retention of organizational knowledge. Literature has unpacked that as much as automotive industries need Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) in their KM strategy, they should also include aspects of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to facilitate and share knowledge (Wisskirchen et al., 2017; Calitz, Poisat & Cullen, 2017; Cronin, Conway & Walsh, 2019). More so, they recognised the limitations of ICTs concerning the management of tacit knowledge, which is intangible and difficult to share, as it plays a crucial role in the KM process. Despite the interest of many authors towards KM in automotive industries, there is a lack of studies aimed at investigating AI as a KM enabler in the South African automotive industry. This is a relevant issue as knowledge in the automotive industries tends to manifest itself tacitly. This realization has spawned a growing interest in incorporating advanced technologies like artificial intelligence into KM practices to overcome knowledge loss and bringing in innovation in automotive industries. It is against this backdrop; …

Blended learning (BL) assimilates the best digital high-tech learning and traditional methods that involve students in network learning transcending physical boundaries. It has been embraced as a possibility so that knowledge can be distributed through time and space. KM-based approaches may be used to collect, coordinate, and transmit intelligence to control processes that can be utilized efficiently to recognize and share the most important details to address customer needs. This study aims to explain how to apply KM techniques in the BL environment to increase educational excellence and quality during pandemic situations. The specific consequences of BL actions are also stated in this paper. The quantitative approach was used in this study by using an electronic questionnaire from the students of the department of ISLM of the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Among the 272 students in the undergraduate program, 74 students replied to the online survey questionnaire. The gathered data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. The Findings of the study showed that KM can be used with BL during the COVID-19 pandemic, including integrated tasks, classroom instruction, online and e-learning. Finally, the study also proposed an intuitive model for applying BL through KM.

The 17th International Conference on Knowledge Management was held in the historic city of Potsdam, Germany. Since the conference was among the first post-pandemic face to face conferences, the overall theme of the 17th edition of the ICKM conference rightly focused on “Knowledge, Uncertainty and Risks: From individual to global scale” at different levels of analysis and agency. This document highlighted one of the panels and the panelists argue that open access to scholarly knowledge production should be the modus operandi in the time and age we live in. Open access to knowledge is critical not just to accelerate advances in finding solutions to societal issues, but also to meet the growing expectations around higher education institutions’ social responsibilities in times of uncertainties.
