Knowledge acquisition is a critical bottleneck in building a knowledge-based system. Much research and many tools have been developed to acquire domain knowledge with embedded rules that may be ignored in constructing the initial prototype. Due to different backgrounds and dynamic knowledge changing over time, domain knowledge constructed at one time may be degraded at any time thereafter. Here, we propose knowledge acquisition, called enhanced embedded meaning capturing under uncertainty deciding (enhanced EMCUD), which constructs a domain ontology and traces information over time to efficiently update time-related domain knowledge based on the current environment. We enrich the knowledge base and ease the construction of domain knowledge that changes with times and the environment.

Knowledge-based system (KBS) for major-pieces lifting projects can be useful for improving the level of decision-making. And it is important to use the knowledge acquired from domain experts to finish all kinds of projects for lifting major-pieces. Knowledge acquisition plays a critical role in constructing a KBS for major-pieces lifting project, also it is commonly regarded as a major obstacle and bottleneck in the process of designing and implementing a KBS. This paper presents a KBS model based on matrix representation and mapping (MRM) approach to facilitate the effectiveness of knowledge acquisition in constructing a KBS. A case study on practical application is employed to illustrate how the KBS works.
