The dimensional tolerancing knowledge management system presented in this paper uses Nested Ripple down Rules (NRDR) targeted towards incrementally capturing expert design knowledge. A demonstrated example of such captured knowledge is that which human designers utilize in order to specify dimensional tolerances on shafts and mating holes in order to meet desired classes of fit as set by relevant engineering standards. In doing so, NRDR interface was designed to receive mathematical functions with their specifications prior and during the KA process. This is necessary to be able to exploit relationships among several classes with respect to certain numerical features of the cases in order to accelerate the convergence of the NRDR knowledge acquisition process by generating artificial cases which are likely to trigger the addition of exception rules. The incorporation of equations constitutes a novel contribution to the field of knowledge acquisition with NRDR. The developed dimensional tolerancing knowledge management system would help mechanical designers become more effective in the time-consuming tolerancing process of their designs in the future.

Implementing a performant knowledge management system in military institutions involves emphasizing the role of the organizational dimension that promotes learning, increasing the quality of employees' work and consolidating managers in these institutions as leaders who encourage learning at all levels. The objectives of knowledge acquisition must be defined in such a way as to improve performance and support the trust of the beneficiary of the public service provided. The development of organizational culture within the institution allows people to adopt new values, attitudes and behaviors. Investing in an efficient knowledge management system involves the development of training and education programs that contribute to improving the skills of employees and knowledge sharing both vertically and horizontally, in order to provide quality public service and create value within the community. Knowledge management can be implemented more efficiently and beneficially in the context of the increasing use of technology in educational activities. Thus, integration of e-learning in knowledge management systems allows the removal of space and time barriers from learning. The question is whether current e-learning systems meet the requirements of knowledge management and provide results comparable to those obtained through traditional learning.

In order to support novice designers for product innovative design, we presented a knowledge management system of product innovative design with an ontology model, which is based on the process of product innovative design and the principle of taxonomy. The system is used to collect, process, reuse and share the knowledge of product innovative design, to help novices to search and apply the relevant design cases, and to speed up the knowledge conversion process, so as to develop the design concepts faster and more efficiently. We invited novices to use the system, and according to the feedback to verify the availability of the system.

Few existing systems can support the reuse of conceptual design knowledge due to the lack of satisfying modeling technologies. In the present study, we investigated the ontology-based modeling technologies and apply them to develop a framework of conceptual design knowledge management. The practicability and validity of our framework were then examined in a Construction Machinery Design Knowledge Management System.

Penyelenggaraan project management di Indonesia berlandaskan pada dua metode, yaitu dengan menggunakan pedoman standarisasi Internasional dan menggunakan referensi best practise yang didapat dari pengalaman para Praktisinya. Untuk memfasilitasi kegiatan tersebut, diperlukan sebuah media penampungan, penyajian dan berbagi pengetahuan berupa Knowledge Management serta pembentukan komunitas yang keanggotaannya relatif lebih mudah dan murah. Penelitian  ini akan membuat sebuah Pemodelan Knowledge Management System berbasis web dan Pembentukan Komunitas Praktisi bidang Project Management, yang meliputi tiga tahapan utama siklus pengembangan knowledge management yaitu knowledge capturing, knowledge sharing and dissemination dan knowledge acquisition and application.
