Abstract
This article investigates the possibility of applying cognitive-science research outcomes for commercial purposes in a business-academia collaboration project supported by the industrialization office of the authors' university. The authors' research backgrounds are computational cognitive science and its applications; particularly in concerning ontology, cognitive and agent modeling. They hypothesize that their research outcomes can provide practical solutions to knowledge sharing and knowledge visualization problems. They investigate corporate human-resource management as an example, develop business process modeling framework using social agent simulator and also develop a human resource evaluation ontology. Applying them to simple recruitment interview cases, the authors analyze the applicability of the proposed solution. In conclusion, they discuss practical problems to be solved for their solution to spread.
