Abstract:

Organizational Memory and Knowledge management are interconnected themes that have grown up in importance to researchers and organizations over the years 2000. The literature has indicated Ontologies as important methods that can be applied to formalize and represent organizational memory. However, there is a knowledge gap at the intersection of these two areas. This article aimed to map the publications related to organizational memory and ontologies through bibliometric techniques. 39 papers were identified, which were written by 85 authors, linked to 40 institutions from 18 countries. For the elaboration of their work, the authors used 845 references and 117 keywords, among which are highlighted Knowledge Management, e-Learning and Organizational Learning. In short, this work enabled the visualization of patterns and trends of the scientific literature and shows that research may be promising in the field of organizational memory and ontologies.
