## 3 Dynamic Knowledge Capitalization

Acquisition of actors' know-how and knows acquired individually or in a collaborative environment in decision making project should be such that actors would be able to capitalize reliable and up-to-date knowledge. Thus, we propose the approach of "Dynamic Capitalization" (DC) in the context of EI. We refer to the knowledge on actors, their tasks, and the results of their activities in resolution of decision problem as knowledge resources (KR**). DC is an** 

approach in which acquisition of KR **covers the communication among actors in the course of resolving a decision problem. The process of validation of** KR

for reaching concession among actors is also captured with annotation process. Thus, this approach serves as the suitable methodology for KC effort in which flexible capitalization of reliable and updated knowledge is required. We present subsequently DC approach. 

## 3.1 Dynamic Capitalization Of Knowledge Resources

DC cycle [13] is depicted by figure 3. There are five major phases in this approach and each phase is dynamic with respect to evaluation and validation of KR by actors. Each phase is discussed in turn.
