Since knowledge exploration is a resource-intensive task for organizations, untimely or excessive knowledge exploration have detrimental impacts on the innovativeness and competitiveness of organizations. The benefits of performance measurement and management tools for knowledge management in organizations have been known for many years now. Therefore, the application of similar tools in ecosystems may enable actors to have access to valuable external knowledge. However, there is a paucity of such tools in management scholarship. The purpose of this study is to bridge this gap by proposing a conceptual tool – the Ecosystem Knowledge (EK) Explorer, which generates insightful knowledge for ecosystem actors using codified technical knowledge (e.g., scientific publications and patents). Not only does the EK Explorer reduce the uncertainty and fuzziness of the knowledge exploration phase for ecosystem actors, it also enables them to save resources and have access to strategic knowledge regarding competition, collaboration, technology management, and policy making in ecosystems. Bibliometric analysis, social network analysis, and text mining were used to conceptualize the constructs and measurable variables of the EK Explorer. 10aecosystem10aknowledge management10aperformance measurement10asocial network analysis10atext mining1 aKhademi, Behrooz  uhttps://timreview.ca/article/125301853nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245013500055210007100190260004200261300001000303490000600313520102400319653002501343653002401368653002201392653001301414653003301427653002801460653005501488653001401543100001801557856003601575       2015                        eng d  a1927-032100aTechnological Public–Private Innovation Networks: A Conceptual Framework Describing Their Structure and Mechanism of Interaction0 aTechnological Public–Private Innovation Networks A Conceptual Fr  aOttawabTalent First Networkc08/2015  a25-330 v53 aTechnological public–private innovation networks, or TechPPINs, enable cooperation between public and private actors in a complex, dynamic, social, and interactive network structure. In this article, the literature on innovation networks is used to construct a conceptual framework that describes the structure and mechanism of interaction in technological public–private innovation networks. In the framework, innovation is created through a dynamic process of interaction between the public and private actors along the network lifecycle. In each stage of network lifecycle, social capital enables various interactions to occur and different modes and quantities of knowledge and technological resources to be exchanged and reinforced. Through a combination of the product lifecycle model and social network analysis, the structure of technological public-private innovation networks are examined at each stage of the lifecycle to reveal information about how the roles of public and private actors are embodied. 10aconceptual framework10ainnovation networks10anetwork lifecycle10anetworks10apublic–private partnership10asocial network analysis10atechnological public–private innovation networks10aTechPPINs1 aMorrar, Rabeh  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/920
