The success of a virtual organisation%26apos;s (VO) operations is vitally dependent on interoperability and close collaboration between allied organisations and enterprises. This paper proposes a semantic web rule-based knowledge system applied to collaboration moderator service (CMS) to enable semantic integration of heterogeneous data for the moderation of shared knowledge among cooperative VOs. The proposed approach also shows how the new generation of the CMS supports collaborative working by: enhancing interoperability across different enterprise information systems, monitoring the activities of partners within the collaboration to identify opportunities for enhanced collaboration and raising awareness of potential misunderstandings or conflicts between partner strategies or decisions. Therefore, the semantic knowledge systems of CMS can function on a platform that supports interoperability and collaborative activities within VOs. A case study is conducted to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed model and the test results confirm its suitability.
