Unwiring and Rewiring for the Knowledge Future

摘要

Knowledge is a dynamic thing. It is not static. It isconstantly changing, challenged and tested against new anddifferent ideas, applied and judged in different contexts andrecast by people. The life cycle of knowledge is dynamicand chaotic. It reflects the human thought process. It isdifferent from the information cycle which is linear andpredictable. A critical step in the knowledge life cycle is“knowledge validation/invalidation.” Too often, this steptakes the form of a check against an existing stock ofinformation. The result is what we might call – knowledgesub optimization. What does it take to do a deepvalidation/invalidation of knowledge?
