Overview
The emergence of blockchain technology is revolutionizing knowledge management by introducing unprecedented levels of security, transparency, and efficiency. Traditional knowledge management systems often struggle with issues of data integrity, access control, and collaboration among stakeholders. Blockchain addresses these challenges through its decentralized and immutable nature, enabling organizations to securely share and store knowledge assets. This transformation allows for real-time tracking of knowledge contributions, enhancing accountability and trust among users. As a result, blockchain technology not only streamlines knowledge management processes but also fosters a culture of innovation and knowledge sharing, ultimately empowering organizations to leverage their intellectual capital more effectively. Blockchain Technology Applications in Knowledge Management provides a comprehensive understanding of blockchain technologies for knowledge management. It discusses the core features of blockchain, such as decentralization, immutability, and transparency, and how they contribute to improved data integrity and security in knowledge management systems. Covering topics such as academic libraries, knowledge ecosystems, and supply chain management, this book is an excellent resource for researchers, academicians, professionals, graduate and postgraduate students, and more.
