New paradigms for generation, capture, assimilation and knowledge transfer are stimulating the development of new methodologies and techniques. This in turn gives rise to a need to improve lifecycle processes for creating and managing knowledge. Current IT technologies allow the development of highly complex infrastructures for knowledge management, but it is socialand economic pressure that drives the development of specific applications in this field. Currently there are a large number of commercial knowledge management system for specific application areas, but no common platform that integrates these. Hopefully, in the not too distant future, we will have applications which better support global knowledge management for educational communities.
