Today e-business requires an intensive knowledge exchange between participants of the global business information environment (e-business environment). Along with a large number of distributed knowledge sources representing knowledge in various formats this leads to appearance of a new direction in knowledge management called knowledge logistics (KL). The paper describes Knowledge Source Network configuration approach (KSNet-approach) to KL through knowledge fusion (KF) and an agent-based architecture of the system KSNet based on this approach. Some major subtasks of the approach are described in detail, with related examples being included.
