摘要:Knowledge sharing and retrieval is very useful in any research process because it promotes access to reliable research content. Its effectiveness depends on how well the knowledge can be shared and organized for easy access. The techniques that have been used to facilitate knowledge sharing in knowledge intensive organizations are Web 2.0 and Web 3.0. However, Web 3.0 (semantic web) has proven more effective since it enhances the web by providing mechanisms by which computers can process, interpret and connect information to enhance access and retrieval. Though Semantic web has been used to enhance knowledge sharing in various areas such as e-learning, medicine and engineering, it has not been applied in knowledge sharing among research students. This paper, therefore, presents an ontology driven approach for sharing of knowledge in form of research materials among research students. This approach makes use of ontology to structure the research materials for easy access and retrieval by research students. It has proved effective as its scope is wider compared to the other approaches that only allow unidirectional flow of knowledge or limit knowledge contributors. The approach has also proved to be precise. This is because all the documents retrieved are relevant.
