Abstract :
Knowledge Management and Reuse in technological application has gone through an evolutionary process to involve people as workforce, processes and technology as infrastructure solution to retain, analyze, organize, improve, and share expertise and data basis. Comprehensive Technological topics and distributed project employees nowadays need a conscious strategy of getting the right knowledge to the right people at the right time and helping people share and put information into action in ways that strive to improve Industrial-organizational performance. For example reuse and management of IT and know-how, and their research activities towards nano-scale phenomena with applications in fuel and biologically inspired materials has already given new impetus to the birth of new expertise and to the improvement of existing products. It is also following the value-added chain from raw material, basic material, and work material to components or systems. In addition to the core areas of mining, metallurgy, and materials, the knowledge-oriented composite-organization provides research competence in scientific and technical fundamentals, in environmental engineering and industrial management in iron and steel industry and alike.
