Then a comprehensive review about the major approaches for designing the KM system from different perspectives including knowledge representation and organization, knowledge sharing and performance measure for KM has been conducted.FindingsThe contributions of this paper will be useful for both academics and practitioners for the study of KM.Originality/valueFor this research, the focus is on conducting an in-depth theoretical review and analysis of KM.} }
