KM's emergence
KM has rooted from some different factors:
1. Downsizing: following downsizing, organizations came to recognize that they had lost years of valuable information and expertise and determined to protect themselves against a reoccurence.(DiMattia & Oder, 1997)
2. KM is a logical extension of the information society, an attempt to cope with the explosion of information and to capitalize on increased knowledge in the workplace.(DiMattia & Oder, 1997)
3. Globalization
4. Ubiquitous computing: access to information has expanded dramatically
5. The knowledge-centric view of the firm
(3,4 & 5: Prusak, 2001)
