Abstract

Knowledge division usually has positive effects on enterprises in enhancing their competitiveness, promoting knowledge innovation and reducing the management costs. This paper mainly studies the knowledge division within knowledge networks based on the cooperative game theory. The conclusions are drawn that: there is a positive correlation between the degree of knowledge division and the reward coefficient for the division of knowledge, the punishment for speculation, and the trust degree between division subjects, while there is a negative correlation between the degree of knowledge division and the knowledge distance.
