Emphasis of most articles is on Knowledge Management, Virtual Organizations and Virtual Teams and Success Factors for Knowledge Management and Virtual Organizations. The scholarly and practitioner contributions to this work represent the first attempt to answer the issues about applying knowledge management for enabling 'anytime, anywhere, anyhow' organizations. These issues will be of relevance to all researchers, scholars, managers, executives and entrepreneurs interested in understanding how information technologies and knowledge management can enable effective design and emergence of virtual organizations, virtual teams and communities of practice. Within this perspective, the focus is on understanding how knowledge creation, knowledge sharing, knowledge acquisition, knowledge exchange, knowledge transfer and management of related risks can be understood and applied in the case of new organization forms including virtual web, virtual corporation, Net broker and business networks.
