Building roadmaps: a knowledge sharing perspective

Published: 24 May 2011 Publication History

Abstract

Roadmapping is a process that involves many stakeholders and architects. In an industry case, we have found that a major challenge is to exchange timely knowledge between these people. We report a number of knowledge sharing scenarios in the roadmapping process. In order to address these issues, we propose a codification mechanism that makes use of a semantic wiki to facilitate knowledge sharing.
