Editorial Concepts and Tools on Knowledge Management: factors that organize knowledge and phenomena that affect the information society A special issue of e-JDE on Knowledge Management to design the best strategies process

International audienceThis special issue of the Electronic Journal of Digital Enterprise (e-JDE), on Concepts and Tools for Knowledge Management (KM), develops the argument that the governance of knowledge seems to be the Scientific Policy able to creating value with regard of human and its evolution in cultures and civilizations. The duty of good governance is a consideration of the transfer of knowledge related to scientific and technological progress. Intrinsically, this process requires a system of organization and knowledge management by implementing knowledge production and its influence in society.The objective of the ISKO-Maghreb Chapter is to contribute in understanding the factors that organize knowledge and phenomena that affect the information society. Actions to be undertaken by the scientific ISKO society must take into account socio-cultural, cognitive and economic in the strategic management of knowledge. Towards the knowledge society, it should be seen in its dynamic, its content and its interaction with science and technology associated to universities, companies and politics.In this context, a first orientation is pedagogical attempt to answer the question "what is known about the knowledge and its organization?". Then the issue is moving towards the societal issues of knowledge, theory and practice, to provide clarification to a convergence of KM (Knowledge Management) approaches. Education, science, culture, communication and technology remain the major themes covered by ISKO-Maghreb, for the development of the knowledge organization, expertise management and collective intelligence.In volume 1-01, , N° 37:- Nouha Taifi, from (Industrial Engineeriing Department, Mohammadia School of Engineering, University Mohammed V - Morocco), presents the “Strategic and Technological Aspects of Institutional Change: Engineering of a new mindset of Information and Knowledge Management Systems”. - Khaled Gaaloul, Marwane El Kharbili and Henderik Proper, from ((Public Research Centre Henri Tudor - Luxembourg, University of Mluxembours, Luxembourg), present the “Secure Governance in Enterprise Architecture - Access Control Perspective”. - Karel Soumagnac and Anne Lehmans, from (IUFM, Université de Bordeaux - France), discuss on the « Classement, indexation et rangement de ressources partageables dans une communauté de pratique ouverte : le cas de l’écoconstruction ». - Badrina Gasmi and Hassina Nacer, Nacer Boudjlida, from (University of Béjaia, Algeria and Lorraine University - France), focuse the study on “Competence Discovery and Composition”.In volume 2-01, , N° 37:- DRISSI S., AMIRAT A., "Système hypermédia d'enseignement à distance: Conception et évaluation.", 2-01, , N° 37"An adaptive e-learning hypermedia system: design and evaluation."- JABLOUN M., SAYEB Y., BEN GHEZALA H., "Ontologie orientée compétence : Aide à la conception d'une architecture d'entreprise", 2-01, , N° 37"Enterprise Ontology Oriented Competence: a support for Enterprise Architecture"- BOURKACHE N.
