depend upon their ability and effectiveness in generating , organizing, manging, and using
this knowledge.
As knowledge is continuously changing, it is necessary to dedicate and maintain a group of
people to continuously update and maintain the knowledge repositories as well as validate
the knowledge in the repositories.
The system for managing this knowledge is known as Knowledge Management System
and the person who manages this knowledge is better known as Knowledge Manager.
The paper tries to describe briefly knowledge management ,tools of knowledge
management and thereafter illustrates the essential characteristics required in the
