description

This paper develops a perspective to modeling patterned technological information flow processes by drawing on concepts from organizational learning and knowledge creation of high technology enterprises. In such a perspective, humans and their interaction in a development team and in an industry’s ‘invisible college’ are modeled as absorbers and users of technological knowledge. The planning behavior of users is specified in terms of design patterns. A hierarchical multilevel pattern flow and repository model is described. Modes for cooperative technology project work in a case of telecommunication industry domain are examined. Questions regarding the relationship between technological knowledge creation and organization performance are studied.
