Abstract

The characterization and assessment of the social capital of a member in collaborative networks is an important element to help promoting the success of collaborative networks. However, models to measure the social capital are lacking. Applying some concepts from social networks theory, this paper discusses some perspectives and criteria to identify and measure the value of social capital of a member in the context of a Virtual organization Breeding Environment (VBE). © IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2010.
