| Research Abstract |
With the recent development of an information infrastructure such as the Internet, the quantity of knowledge that individuals and organizations come across daily is increasing markedly, and requires a major upgrading of knowledge management abilities. In such circumstances, the development of a basis of knowledge management that supports knowledge creation, operation, and inheritance under the slogan 'knowledge management' has drawn attention.
In this study, we aim to develop an information system for knowledge focused on two points shown below :
・Ontology, used as an index of knowledge
・A Computer-aided model which supports knowledge creation activities in an organization
Ontology can be regarded as a conceptual system describing states of being, with a common denominator in which humans and systems share knowledge. This is the basis of expressing such ‘behavior' in knowledge management, to consider 'who has what knowledge', 'who must be informed of what knowledge', and the 'contents' and 'significance' of that knowledge. This study aims to positively consider how such knowledge construction and manipulation techniques with ontology can be the initial basis of a knowledge management supporting technique.
To clearly express the design principles of the system in this paper, the suggested dual loop model reflects the key idea of our approach referencing the theories of 'Learning Organization' and Nonaka's ‘Organizational Knowledge Creation'.
In this research, we have developed a knowledge management environment Kfarm as an implementation of our idea.
