We address the problem of providing knowledge management sup-port to business innovation. We consider the context of virtual enterprise envi-ronments, where knowledge is often fragmented and heterogeneous, and inter-operability is a crucial requirement. We propose a knowledge repository and management infrastructure, called Production and Innovation Knowledge Re-pository (PIKR), to support open innovation in virtual enterprises. The PIKR provides a set of reference ontologies to semantically describe enterprise knowledge resources, and semantics-based services for accessing and reasoning over such descriptions. The proposal is being conceived in the framework of the BIVEE European project and adheres to the Linked Data approach.

Abstract
We address the problem of providing knowledge management sup-port to business innovation. We consider the context of virtual enterprise envi-ronments, where knowledge is often fragmented and heterogeneous, and inter-operability is a crucial requirement. We propose a knowledge repository and management infrastructure, called Production and Innovation Knowledge Re-pository (PIKR), to support open innovation in virtual enterprises. The PIKR provides a set of reference ontologies to semantically describe enterprise knowledge resources, and semantics-based services for accessing and reasoning over such descriptions. The proposal is being conceived in the framework of the BIVEE European project and adheres to the Linked Data approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
