Knowledge is fuel to a great part of economic activity and indeed nearly eclipses labor and capital as the most important production factor. Yet, compared to the latter two, the effective allocation and coordination of knowledge within organizations clearly remains an under-researched topic. To tackle this shortcoming, I plan to develop a stylized model of the organization, determining and interlinking: (i) the optimal knowledge structure (i.e. defining which members of the organization should acquire what knowledge and who should specialize to which degree); (ii) the optimal organizational structure (i.e. defining roles or jobs and their arrangement, as well as their interconnection by channels of communication); and (iii) the process of matching pending tasks with those members of the organization possessing that knowledge adequate for their execution. As a basic prerequisite, a formal framework for reasoning about individually-held knowledge as well as that held by complex social systems like an organization needs to be established. Toward this end, integrating some insights and tools of epistemic logic into mainstream economics seems an innovative and promising approach.

知识是大部分经济活动的燃料，事实上几乎使劳动力和资本成为最重要的生产要素。然而，与后两者相比，组织内知识的有效分配和协调显然仍然是一个研究不足的主题。为了解决这一缺陷，我计划开发一个程式化的组织模型，确定并连接：（i）最佳知识结构（即确定组织的哪些成员应获得哪些知识，哪些人应专门化到何种程度）; ㈡最佳组织结构（即界定角色或工作及其安排，以及通过沟通渠道相互联系）;以及（iii）将未决任务与组织中拥有足够的知识来执行这些任务的成员相匹配的过程。作为一个基本的先决条件，需要建立一个正式的框架来推理个人拥有的知识以及组织等复杂社会系统所拥有的知识。为此，将认识逻辑的一些见解和工具整合到主流经济学中似乎是一种创新和有前途的方法。
