Knowledge Communities Panel
Description: KT2001 focuses on the technologies that
enable knowledge. As such, this conference specifically
reaches beyond the Information Technologies audience.
In fact, KT2001 has been designed as a conference that

currently have no forum for interaction. This panel is
designed to provide for a meeting of the minds, so that
each knowledge community can learn from the other for
mutual benefit.
