It also demonstrates the ways in which to use a standard recognized notation to capture, or model, knowledge for use in a knowledge management system (KMS). This volume enables knowledge engineers, systems analysts, designers, developers, and researchers to understand the concept of knowledge modeling with Unified Modeling Language (UML). It offers guidelines for measuring, qualifying, understanding, and knowledge modeling by providing a reusable framework that can be adopted for the implementation of KMS. After a brief history of knowledge management, this book discusses the acquisition of knowledge and types of knowledge that can be found in the domain.
