1. Knowledge synergy in scientific research management
1. 1 content of knowledge synergy
Socio-economic development is the main driving force behind knowledge synergetic development, theories such as knowledge management and synergetics are the conceptual and methodological underpinnings of knowledge synergetics, and information and networking technologies provide the technological and platform underpinnings of knowledge synergetics. Currently, research on knowledge synergy in existing literature is scattered across multiple areas and themes, and knowledge synergy has received attention from a wide range of experts and scholars in various fields. Research covered areas such as government, business and university science, such as e-government synergy, customer knowledge synergy, supply chain knowledge synergy, web-based knowledge synergy, knowledge synergetic technical approaches, cluster environmental knowledge synergetics, and human resources synergy. As far as the status of the literature is concerned, there is a lack of concerted research into the scientific field, which is not consistent with the trend towards the reform of the scientific and technological system in the country. Strengthening collaborative research in the field of scientific research management will help to increase the efficiency of research project management in the country, reduce the problem of duplication of research funding and reduce the low and high levels of duplication of scientific and technological projects. With regard to knowledge synergetic understanding and definitions, there is a considerable amount of representation from national and international scholars. Nielsen noted that knowledge synergy enhances the level of business performance of key players in the alliance in a way that enhances knowledge innovation, and anklam noted that the development of knowledge management synergy is knowledge synergy, which is the theme of synergy, collaboration, sharing and collaborative innovation. Equivalents point to knowledge synergy as an important strategic management idea and the most effective way to achieve rapid knowledge innovation through interdisciplinary, cross-cutting and cross-geographical collaborative knowledge innovation in an integrated, multi-mainstream, multi-purpose, multi-task approach, to achieve “1+1>2” knowledge synergy. Hu changping and zhongho pointed to the need for knowledge synergy to connect departments or personnel within the organization, to integrate knowledge resources within the organization and to coordinate systems within the organization. Co-qing and li just noted that knowledge synergizes through innovative application of relevant theoretical methods and techniques of knowledge management to achieve synergistic management and functioning of knowledge resources within and outside the organization. Knowledge synergy is therefore understood as a holistic optimisation based on co-benefits, primarily through knowledge management, which enhances the synergy of the various constituencies, and thus the synergy of the various constituencies of the alliance as a wholeInnovation efficiencyAnd operational performance levels. Based on the above, knowledge synergy is seen as a fundamental objective of innovation, an interactive process based on knowledge management and synergy, involving multiple actors (organizations, teams, individuals) and as a management model and strategic tool for organizations to optimize the integration of relevant resources and thus enhance overall business performance. Knowledge management and synergetic management are mutually reinforcing as a result of a knowledge management approach that allows for closer synergy among the various constituencies and a higher level of knowledge flow, management and innovation in a highly effective corporate alliance. In keeping with the country's scientific and technological institutional reforms, there is a need to bring knowledge together into the practice areas of scientific research management. Knowledge synergy in scientific research management is an integrated application of knowledge management and collaborative management, a process that integrates knowledge management and knowledge innovation, respectively, with scientific research management and scientific research project activities and interacts with them in a cross-cutting and synergistic environment. The operational objective of knowledge synergy in scientific research management is to promote a qualitative leap in the overall effectiveness of scientific research activities, based on the enhancement of the capacity of scientific institutions to innovate in synergy。
1. 2 knowledge synergetic features of scientific research management
At the strategic level, we have strengthened our knowledge-sharing capacity in the field of scientific research and management by considering the national innovation system as a general eco-system for scientific research and innovation and scientific progress, as well as the national scientific and research organizations as functional units for scientific research activities, and by improving the level of synergy among the various functional units in order to eliminate the problem of decentralization and duplication of scientific research and research, with a view to optimizing scientific innovation in general. Knowledge synergy in scientific research management has three main implications: firstly, scientific research management activities need to develop new development models of holistic collaborative knowledge innovation through knowledge management and collaborative management approaches; secondly, scientific research management activities involve synergies that include both scientific research management operations and knowledge management; and finally, scientific research management knowledge synergies are needed to achieve the integration of multi-managerial, multi-operational and multi-resource elements. The knowledge synergetic environment is a multi-entity ecosystem that includes elements such as scientific and research organizations, regulatory policies, institutional norms, resource systems, technology platforms and operational mechanisms, in which knowledge synergetic mechanisms refer to the underlying principles and patterns of synergetic management, and are the link between scientific and research management activities and resource elements, resulting in associated synergetic activities norms and operational models. Mechanisms for synergizing scientific research management knowledge can be divided into:
Two tier categories: the first consists of synergistic mechanisms at the knowledge management level; the second consists of synergistic mechanisms at the operational level of scientific research management, which specifically includes operational mechanisms for resource elements such as finance, personnel, technology, equipment and projects. Achieving genuine synergy requires analysing the rationale and mechanisms for synergies at different levels in relation to the various aspects of scientific research management. The fundamental task of scientific research management knowledge synergy is to optimize scientific research management-related decision-making by creating a synergetic environment and promoting an efficient flow of knowledge, leading to the scientific allocation and rational sharing of scientific resources and ultimately to greater overall synergy and innovation. Knowledge synergetic mechanisms for scientific research management include various resource elements related to scientific research and innovation, in which knowledge resources are more important than other resources. It is both a process analysis and reflection of the elements of management, an important outcome of scientific research activities, and an essential support for management decision-making. In a collaborative scientific management environment, knowledge resources flow through a variety of synergistic mechanisms and are used by various actors to further enhance synergies. Knowledge management is therefore the basis for knowledge synergy。
2 research on building synergies in scientific management knowledge
Synergy is a process and pattern of interaction and orderly integration of elements, which are the basis for the development of knowledge synergy-related mechanisms, which combine the content structure and development framework of knowledge synergy. Knowledge synergy in scientific research management should be based on multi-dimensional synergies based on multiple mechanisms, and a knowledge synergetic framework is needed to guide the building and implementation of knowledge synergetics. The development of a framework for knowledge synergy in scientific research management begins with the identification of several issues, such as the elements around which knowledge synergy in scientific research management needs to be built, the patterns of interaction between those elements, and the problems currently impeding the establishment of mechanisms for knowledge synergy. The process of building synergies in scientific research management is a process of removing existing barriers and creating a new order。
2. 1 barriers to knowledge synergy in scientific research management
(1) inadequate management of knowledge resources。
The management and use of knowledge resources in existing knowledge management activities in research project management is also problematic. Currently, it is responsible for the archives and documents management of scientific research projects, and there is a problem of “hidden use” of intellectual resources such as reports, papers and monographs arising from scientific research projects. The management system for the collection, development, sharing and utilization of knowledge resources needs to be further refined, and its support for synergies in scientific research management has not been fully utilized。
(2) inadequate flow of knowledge resources。
There is a lack of transfer and flow of knowledge resources among the main subjects of research project management activities. There is a lack of knowledge among the main players, such as science project managers, consulting experts, knowledge managers and scientists, a lack of horizontal links between scientific management activities of similar disciplines in different fields, and a lack of knowledge-sharing and communication throughout the collaborative activities of scientific research management。
(3) inadequate policies and systems for synergy。
Policies and systems are a guarantee of the synergy of knowledge. Knowledge synergy in the management of scientific research is built on the basis of the previous management system. It does not completely break the original regulatory boundaries. It does not amount to complete openness and transparency. The subjects remain independent and retain their own managerial powers. At present, there is no coherent regulatory policy and institutional framework among the various scientific and technological research and development forces, nor is a truly synergistic framework and environment in place. In the absence of policy and institutional safeguards, there is a lack of clarity on the responsibilities and obligations of the various actors involved, which makes the process difficult。
(4) incompatibility of synergistic technology platforms。
The current synergy of knowledge based on web-based and communication technologies is rapidly evolving, and this virtual cooperative technology has greatly enhanced the efficiency of synergistic management. The scientific research institutions themselves have a set of technical standards and management platforms in place to enable them to interact, connect and interoperate, in the context of reshaping the synergies and related mechanisms of these management bodies, which are relevant to the practical effects of knowledge-building. At the present time, we have not begun to develop synergies in the development of technological platforms across major subjects in our scientific research management activities. Of these four issues, the first two are knowledge barriers to be addressed in scientific research management, the latter two are synergy barriers to be addressed. These issues are both the cause of the state of science and technology institutions in our country and the key issues affecting synergistic innovation development and the improvement of overall innovation effectiveness. In the management of scientific research, the introduction of intellectual synergies has provided both methods and programmes to address current problems and new ideas and ideas to improve the efficiency of scientific research and innovation。
2. 2 framework features of scientific management knowledge synergy
The knowledge synergetic framework for scientific research management is based on the interaction of the various elements of scientific research management and is designed around the various elements and their dynamics. The framework for synergetic scientific research management is also a multi-layered structure, as it contains a multi-resource element, as well as a multidimensional business model. Hu changping and zhou-ho believe that synergetic knowledge management specifically encompasses three aspects, namely target synergies, technology synergies and resource synergies. Lawrence liu, in a study on synergy strategies, noted that in terms of organizational dimensions, the synergy framework included three important components, namely people and culture, processes and governance, and technology. Shen liining believes that the synergy element is a guarantee of knowledge exchange and sharing within the enterprise and underpins it. There are four main elements of human, technological, resource and process synergy, of which people, technology, resources and processes are the subjects, instruments, targets and processes of synergistic knowledge management. Kawazawa pointed out that knowledge synergy includes four main elements: knowledge subject, object, time, environment. A breakdown of these perspectives reveals that the knowledge synergy of scientific research management should be a multi-dimensional and multi-factorial architecture that encompasses at least three types of synergetic, process and object. Elements such as persons and organizational bodies can be grouped into the subject category. The elements of scientific research projects, knowledge, technology, finance, etc. Can be classified as objects, which are the objects and content of knowledge synergy. Elements such as management processes, synergetic processes, knowledge processes, resource flows, etc. Can be grouped into the process category. In addition, the relevant legislation, policies, institutions, strategies, synergy objectives, etc. Constitute the external environment for the various actors involved. Knowledge synergy can be divided into three levels: subjects, objects and processes, which are interactive. The synergy between our scientific institutions is achieved through synergy among the elements of each of the three classifications, which also require interaction and integration. Among them, knowledge resources are more important than other resources, both in terms of processing, analysing and reflecting the elements of management, as well as in terms of the results of scientific research activities, and as essential support for management decision-making. Linkages in cross-subject and multi-factor knowledge synergetic approaches networking models. The synergy of the elements is a system that generally begins with the establishment of synergy between the subjects and then uses the mechanisms of synergistic operation between the elements and transfer mechanisms to manage the resources distributed in the main alliances and thus achieve strategic objectives through the implementation of related operational activities. System-building that optimizes synergies can improve overall performance in scientific research management. Mechanisms for synergizing scientific research management knowledge are a very important synergetic feature across subjects, projects, processes, resources and platforms, and are the first nodes and difficulties that require breakthroughs in our current scientific research management activities. Such a system of synergies, with a range of features, including cross-cutting and cross-resources, is a loose and close framework for operational synergy. Knowledge synergy in scientific research management cannot rely on a local and one-sided planning programme, but requires holistic planning of the various elements, key relationships and synergy frameworks in the field of scientific research management. From the outside to the inside, these five “synergy” relationships reflect the cross-cutting and hierarchical relationships between the main, process and object type 3 synergies, as well as the relationships between the macro- and micro-levels of the knowledge synergetic framework in the scientific research management institutions. In practice, there is still a need for research to strengthen synergies at all levels, taking into account the realities of the situation, and to build a framework for knowledge synergy through the establishment of operational mechanisms and the adaptation of optimal management systems. At a time when scientific and technological institutional reforms are developing further, it is of great practical value to construct a framework of knowledge synergy for scientific research management in the country. The knowledge synergetic framework needs to be based on knowledge management to enhance synergies in scientific research management across major subjects, projects, processes, resources and platforms。
3 concluding remarks
In conclusion, the reform of the scientific and technological system will have a fundamental impact on the management of our scientific research and its innovation, which will give us an important proposition for synergistic development. Our scientific forces in all fields will no longer be managed and developed in an independent and self-contained manner. The emergence of synergies in scientific research management is indicative of the trend towards knowledge management and synergistic management in the field of scientific research management operations, which will certainly promote the development of scientific research management and innovation and will make a significant contribution to the development of our national innovation system and knowledge-intensive economic development。
