Scope
Aims, scope and focus
We aim to publish articles detailing novel and important work that will challenge the way knowledge management and knowledge processing experts and practitioners think. The journal aims to provide researchers and authors with an appropriate carrier to contribute knowledge in knowledge processing and related topics. We encourage the submission of papers that (i) make significant advances to the field of study in terms of development of knowledge processing theory or methodology and practice; (ii) address questions of general importance and/or current interest; and (iii) generate technical and practical insights that extend beyond the study system utilized. Papers that do not meet these criteria are likely to be deemed inappropriate and returned without review.Scope
