Using human behavior to develop knowledge-based virtual organisations

Abstract

Propozycja modelu opartego na zachowaniach ludzkich dla potrzeb budowy wirtuanych organizacji opartych na wiedzy.Virtual organizations promote dynamic interaction between individuals, groups, and organizations, who share their capabilities and resources to pursue a common goal and maximize their benefits. Among these resources, knowledge is a critical one that requires special attention in order to support problem-solving activities and decision-making processes and provide strategic advantage. This article presents an initial proposal for the creation of dynamic knowledge-based virtual organizations, as a way to share knowledge in order to support problem-solving activities. This approach is based on behavioral elements, identified by other researchers, that affect group interactions; these items are represented inside the e-decisional community in a manner that allows software agents to interact similarly to their human counterparts. An initial model and a functional prototype have been developed and used to obtain a set of preliminary results, which show human-like behavior in our test system.
