Abstract

Une voix de connaissance agit en tant que bibliothèque par le fait qu'elle fournit un répertoire pour des informations vocales sur divers sujets, mais elle essaie également de rendre disponible à l'utilisateur dans son ensemble la connaissance qui est reçue via divers canaux. Cette connaissance peut être la plus précieuse de toutes étant donné qu'elle est mise dans un contexte et qu'elle est fréquemment plus étendue et plus à jour et, par conséquent, plus utile pour une prise de décision. En bref, une voix de connaissance aide à s'assurer que les bonnes informations vont aux bonnes personnes au bon moment pour prendre les bonnes décisions.
