Recently, businesses that could capture the knowledge embedded in their

organization would own the future. Organizations that isolate knowledge

management risk losing its benefits. Companies have attempted a variety of

efforts that go under the name of knowledge management. Knowledge

Management (KM) helps organizations identify, select, organize, disseminate,

and transfer knowledge and expertise that typically reside within the organization

in an unstructured manner. Managing knowledge enables effective business

problem solving, dynamic learning, strategic planning, and decision making.

In order to support KM practices, many researchers have emphasized

innovative systems of managing knowledge. Among them, Business intelligence

(BI) refers to technologies, applications, and practices for the collection,

integration, analysis, and presentation of business knowledge. The primary

purpose of BI is to support better business decision making. BI systems provide

historical, current, and predictive views of business operations, most often using

data that has been gathered into a data warehouse or a data mart and

occasionally working from operational data.

It is strongly believed that KM and BI would be able to sharpen important

issues in the field of MCDM fields. In order to promote business intelligence and

knowledge management research, we organize a special workshop dedicated to

the topic of ¡¡ãKnowledge Management and Business Intelligence¡¡À under the 20th

International Conference on Multiple Criteria Decision Making

(http://www.mcdm2009.cn/default.html). This workshop aims to provide

researchers and practitioners an opportunity to share the most recent advances in
