Definitions and quotes

Knowledge
Knowledge is a familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something, such as facts, information, descriptions, or skills, which is acquired through experience or education by perceiving, discovering, or learning.
Integration

Here we review the mechanisms of large-scale integration that counterbalance the distributed anatomical and functional organization of brain activity to enable the emergence of coherent behaviour and cognition.
Francisco Varela in Daniel J. Siegel The Developing Mind: How Relationships and the Brain Interact to Shape who We are, Guilford Press, 2012, p. 360.
