A Body of Knowledge (BOK) is a term used to represent the complete set of concepts, terms, and activities that make up a professional domain. It encompasses the core teaching skills and research in a field or industry [13]. One of the main concerns of the software industry is to develop the talent of its human resources since the quality and innovation of its products and services depend of a great extent on the Knowledge, the ability, and the talent of technical engineers. In the educational area the used of BOK and Cloud Computing Tools are becoming the best way to provide solutions that meet the current need for greater collaboration between business, industry, education, and society; for this reason, the development of software products based in innovation is important for the professional life of a software engineering, since it leads to transform routine tasks into automated tasks; in the same way, it allows to manage processes focused on aligning services of Information Technology (IT) to the needs of companies with an emphasis on the benefits that the final customer added may perceive to the factor of I+D+I in order to create an innovative product. The current study focuses on the use of computer tools in the cloud in its phases: definition, planning, and control of software project based on the innovation as a tool for development and knowledge generation based in BOK. The tools of Computing in the Cloud analyzed were: Alfresco, Redbooth, DotProject, Dealines, and Redmine. The use of these tools permitted to obtain information to formulate a BOK in the context of projects.
