Most common definitions of the information system fail to clearly separate the notions of information and knowledge, and these terms are generally used quite loosely. This is particularly the case for projects dealing with digital information systems (DIS) using applications of Web 2.0 and big data.
This book presents the inherent risks linked to this ambiguity and studies the notion of the Enterprise’s Information and Knowledge System (EIKS). It specifies the limits and conditions within which knowledge can be considered as an object and treated as an object in a DIS. EIKSs allow data exchanges, but also ensure how they are interpreted. They become actual knowledge systems.
