Abstract

Rapidity of decision making process is an important factor for different areas of human life (business, healthcare, industry, military applications, etc.). Since responsible persons make decisions using available knowledge a delivery of necessary and timely information for knowledge management systems is important. Knowledge logistics is a new direction of knowledge management addressing this issue. It provides a set of activities for knowledge search, acquisition and integration from distributed sources located in information grid environment. The paper proposes a developed Knowledge Source Network approach (KSNet-approach) to knowledge logistics and its multi-agent architecture, and describes a research prototype of the system "KSNet" based on this approach.
