Abstract
The future battlespace will consist of sensors, decision‐makers and weapons systems interoperating within a framework of command systems. These command systems should be adaptable to meet the requirements of a specific operational environment and to take advantage of new technology. The barriers to achieving flexibility and interoperability within the military domain are analogous to those that complicate business‐system integration within the commercial sector. Component software technology could play an important role in achieving the required level of flexibility and interoperability. Therefore describes a generalised framework for assessing the impact of component technology on a system of systems.

Abstract
Introduces the special issue. Focuses first on concepts of knowledge in knowledge management before discussing the importance and role of knowledge in learning and the learning organisation. Discusses the role of knowledge and learning with regard to organisational change and the challenges that this poses with regard to benchmarking. Focuses then on information and communication technologies and to the role that these play in the complexities of business organisational change. Concludes with a discussion of the importance of the human aspects before outlining the contribution of the seven papers which comprise this special issue.
