Abstract

This paper describes a new view of knowledge and how computer systems can support knowledge evolution. In the classic view of knowledge, knowledge should be well articulated and universal. In reality, knowledge evolves dynamically depending on context. Computer systems should support not only the access to the knowledge but also the knowledge evolution.
