Active knowledge modeling of enterprises

Más información sobre el libro

Enterprise Modeling is the art of externalizing enterprise knowledge, representing its core insights. While beneficial in product design and systems development, a shift in methodologies is essential for modeling to have a more significant impact. Modeling should be as intuitive as drawing, offering robust services for capturing and preserving work-centric knowledge while ensuring reuse. Active Knowledge Modeling (AKM) presents a solution, focusing on discovering, expressing, sharing, and managing enterprise knowledge. It leverages the Web as a medium for knowledge engineering, developing model-based platforms and services. The authors, inventors of AKM, draw from extensive collaboration with scientists and industry practitioners to provide examples, methods, and services that enable innovative work practices. This approach enhances c-business, enterprise design, and lifecycle management. Industry managers and design engineers will recognize the vast potential and benefits of IT-supported distributed design processes. Additionally, researchers in collaborative design environments will find inspiration and numerous examples for future advancements.
