style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Knowledge Systems recognizes 
the evolving nature of work and society to being knowledge based. Competitive 
pressures are forcing organizations to do more with less and to leverage all 
they know to succeed. Knowledge systems are those systems developed to 
facilitate collaboration, knowledge capture, storage, transfer and flow; 
knowledge use; as well as to foster creativity and innovation. This track 
explores the many factors that influence the development, adoption, use, and 
success of knowledge systems. These factors include culture, measurement, 
governance and management, storage and communication technologies, process 
modeling and development. The track also looks at the societal drivers for 
knowledge systems including an aging work force, the need to distribute 
knowledge and encourage collaboration in widely dispersed organizations and 
societies, and competitive forces requiring organizations of all types to adapt 
and change rapidly.  The track has a call for papers for HICSS 47 (<A
