Know-how

Science --> The know-how is the knowledge of the means which allow the achievement of a Tâche. The term are equivalent English know-how is rather regularly used in the technical and economic literature.

Know-how is different from the other knowledge as knowledge because it can be directly applied to a Tâche. Know-how of solution to problem is different from knowledge on the resolution of the problems. For example, in certain legislative systems, know-how is regarded as intellectual property of the company, and can be transferred when the company is bought.

One of the limitations of know-how is its dependence with a work; thus it tends to being less general that knowledge. For example, an expert in data processing can have the knowledge of algorithms in several computer programming languages, whereas a programmer in Visual BASIC can know only one specific implementation of an algorithm, written in Visual BASIC. Thus the experiment and the know-how of the programmer Visual BASIC can be of a commercial value only for Microsoft workshops, for example.

One of the advantages of know-how is that it can imply more dimensions, like the manual experiment, the drive to solve problems, the comprehension of the limits of a specific solution, etc Ainsi, the knowledge to make can frequently eclipse the theory.
