Knowledge Content

The hierarchical Detailed Value Chain Model and the Elementary Management Cycle model of educational domain knowledge content updating are formally described in this paper, wherein computerized process measures are also proposed. The paper provides a method for updating the knowledge of the analyzed domain, referred to as the “enterprise domain,” based on enterprise modelling in terms of management information interactions. A method was designed, the formal DVCM and EMC descriptions of which are provided in the BPMN notation, allowing to develop a two-level (granular) model for describing the knowledge of educational domain management information interactions. In implementing this model and its algorithms in technological terms, a subsystem of enterprise knowledge has been created in a knowledge-based CASE system (computerized knowledge-based IS engineering), which performs the function of a domain knowledge database.

Area Of Application

Knowledge Management Systems are increasingly becoming important to both practitioners and researchers. One area of application of such systems is the formation of organizational teams with appropriate knowledge content to solve complex and novel problems. A common predicament, however, is that teams are often formed with only partial problem domain knowledge. This study examines if teams that have partial problem domain knowledge are more effective and efficient than teams that do not have specific problem domain knowledge. It finds that partial problem domain knowledge may in fact be worse than no problem domain knowledge. Several implications for researchers and practitioners are derived from this result.

Practical Implications

Purpose The need for inclusive and logically consistent representation of diverse and even confronting viewpoints on the domain knowledge has been widely discussed in the literature in the past decade. The purpose of this paper is to propose a generic model for building an open coherent diversified knowledge organization system (KOS). Design/methodology/approach The proposed model incorporates a generic epistemological component, the validity scope type, assigned to each statement in the constructed KOS. Statements are clustered by their association with various validity scope types into internally coherent subsystems. These subsystems form a knowledge organization network connected through the universal (consensual) subsystems with more than one validity scope type. The model extends the Galili’s Cultural Content Representation paradigm, which divides the knowledge content of a scientific theory into two confronting parts: body and periphery. Findings The knowledge organization network model makes it possible to comparatively examine similarities and differences among various viewpoints and theories on the domain knowledge. The presented approach conforms with the principle of Open Knowledge Network initiative for creation of open accessible knowledge. Practical implications The proposed model can be used for ontological reasoning by a variety of information services, such as ontology-based decision-support and learning systems, diversified search and customer management applications. Social implications The model enables explicit representation of social and cultural minority voices and historical knowledge in the KOS. Originality/value The main contribution of the proposed model is that it generalizes and enhances various previously proposed representations of epistemological aspects of KOS and allows for multiple inter-linked subsystems to coherently co-exist as part of the extensible network.

Ontology Quality

Summary Objective: To review the literature concerning the quality assurance of medical ontologies. Methods: scholar.google.com was searched using the search strings (+ontology +”quality assurance”) and (+ontology +”evaluation/evaluating”). Relevant publications were selected by manual review. Other work already familiar to the author, or suggested by other researchers contacted by the author, were included. The papers were analysed for common themes. Results: Four broad properties of an ontology were identified that may be quality-assured: philosophical validity, compliance with meta-ontological commitments, ‘content correctness’, and fitness for purpose. Each published methodology addressed only a subset of these properties. ‘Content’ may be divided into domain knowledge content, and metadata describing either the provenance of domain knowledge content, or relationships between it and lexical information (e.g. for display and retrieval). ‘Correctness’ (whether of domain knowledge content or metadata) may also be further subdivided into truth, completeness, parsimony and internal consistency. Conclusions: Understanding of how to assure the quality of ontologies, or evaluate their fitness for specific purposes, is improving but remains poor. A combination of methodologies is required, but tools to support a comprehensive quality assurance programme remain lacking.Perfect quality of an ontology is not provable and may not be desirable: an ontology compliant with all current philosophical theories, following necessary ontological commitments, and with entirely ‘correct’ content, may be too complex to be directly usable or useful.The extent to which an ontology’s fitness for purpose is predicted or influenced by its other properties remains to be determined. Field studies of ontologies in use, including interrater effects, are required.

Marine Accidents

Marine accidents have many causes but a recurring theme is poor watch-keeping often caused by weak bridge management. Information overload is sometimes blamed for accidents and attempts to reduce information overload may include electronic systems which have been produced for integrating information from various electronic sources so that information is concentrated on fewer screens. This article explores some of the issues facing the designers of such systems. While acknowledgement is given to some of the technical problems, the article concentrates on those issues associated with the user of such systems, in particular, domain knowledge, screen design and user control. Available Marine Accident Investigation Reports for 2004 are used to highlight that, in that year, only one passenger vessel incident was attributed in part to poor data from electronic aids. However, it is accepted that a much wider study of such reports is needed before any firm conclusions can be drawn.

The article substantiates the importance of forming the project competence of future specialists in information, library and archive services with the help of the project management information systems. The essence of project development in the library sphere is specified. The key features of the project activity of specialists in information, library and archive services under the conditions of digitalization, as well as the specifics of its informatization, are analyzed. The special features of project management as a component of library management are described. Some project management information systems are characterized. The structure of library workers’ project competence (value-motivational (axiological), knowledge-content (cognitive), technological (activity-practical) components) is specified. The value-motivational component is determined by a set of stable motives (personal, cognitive, professional ones) and suggests a conscious positive attitude to the project activity automation, readiness for its implementation. The knowledge-content component assumes having knowledge of the project activity automation. The technological component includes the ability to perform the project activity automation, to feel free in the information environment, etc. The results of the experimental verification of the efficiency of pedagogical conditions in order to form the project competence of future specialists in information, library and archive services (illustrated by the implementation of the author’s special course "Information Systems for Project Management in the Professional Activities of Information, Library and Archive Specialists") are presented. The implementation of the author's special course has visualized certain positive changes in the levels of the project competence development of students in experimental groups compared with those in control ones. The results of the obtained data analysis made it possible to ascertain the positive dynamics of changes in the quantitative indicators of the levels of the project competence development of future specialists in librarianship.

The Impact

This study empirically examines the possible relationships between the accounting majors in-depth exposure of database knowledge and their willingness to expand their knowledge beyond the required Accounting Information Systems (AIS) course by taking additional classes leading to a Management Information Systems (MIS) minor. Our empirical results suggest that in-depth database exposure in AIS classes has a positive impact on accounting students interest in pursuing an MIS minor. The findings of this study encourage the collaboration between MIS and accounting faculty in developing AIS courses to include in-depth database knowledge content. Such collaboration can benefit both accounting and MIS programs.
