Complex Adaptive Knowledge-Flows and Workflows

A new paradigm in various applications areas is emerging from the convergence of Grid technologies, semiotics methodologies and knowledge applications. This convergence is enabled by the duality between knowledge providers and knowledge consumers. The impact of such a paradigm on knowledge-flows and workflows interactions [3,4] will require to reason in terms of "Complex Adaptive Knowledge-Flows and Workflows". This paper presents the first two levels of the Knowledge-Work fractal double triads that are the basis for further in-depth analysis of these flows.
