Although many virtual organizations (VO) are quite effective, not all VO practitioners are effective in each area, and there is no organized body of knowledge or set of ?best practices? among VOs to draw upon for key issues. Therefore centers are likely not as effective as they could be. This proposal involves the creation of an online knowledge exchange. This Virtual Organization Resources and Toolkits Exchange (VORTEX) would provide leaders of virtual organizations with resources about running virtual organizations and access to relevant organizational scientists. VORTEX is intended to aid in building a community among virtual organization leaders so that they can collaborate, share, and learn with and from each other. Specific Objectives of the work include development, evaluation, and improvement of an online Virtual Organization Resources and Toolkits Exchange (VORTEX) environment to aid scientists and engineers to more effectively lead virtual organizations. This type of environment is necessary in order to: (1) Connect leaders of virtual organizations with appropriate organization scientists; (2) Provide online educational and reference materials for issues associated with managing virtual organizations; and(3) Establish a center for leaders of virtual organization to share and collaborate with each other.

虽然许多虚拟组织(VO)是相当有效的，但并不是所有的VO实践者在每个领域都有效，并且没有组织的知识体系或一套最佳实践？在关键问题上可以借鉴的VO。因此，中心可能并不像它们所能达到的那样有效。这项提议涉及建立一个在线知识交流平台。这一虚拟组织资源和工具包交换(VORTEX)将为虚拟组织领导人提供有关虚拟组织运作和接触相关组织科学家的资源。Vortex旨在帮助在虚拟组织领导者之间建立一个社区，以便他们可以相互协作、共享和学习。这项工作的具体目标包括开发、评估和改进在线虚拟组织资源和工具包交换(VORTEX)环境，以帮助科学家和工程师更有效地领导虚拟组织。这种环境是必要的，以便：(1)将虚拟组织的领导人与适当的组织科学家联系起来；(2)为与管理虚拟组织相关的问题提供在线教育和参考材料；以及(3)为虚拟组织的领导人建立一个相互共享和协作的中心。
