Abstract
This paper describes a framework that supports knowledge modeling and sharing within public administrations, and a prototype of such a knowledge-sharing system. We will first give a brief theoretical introduction on processes of knowledge creation, transfer and application, and then we will present our framework and discuss how it relates to these processes. We will furthermore illustrate this with a case study and show the architecture of the prototype we developed in this context.
