    Study Notes

    Knowledge Management (KM)

    • A range of practices focused on increasing awareness, fostering learning, speeding collaboration and innovation, and exchanging insights.

    Types of Knowledge

    • Explicit Knowledge: documented, stored, and codified knowledge, such as standard procedures, product formulas, customer contact lists, market research results, and patents.
    • Tacit Knowledge: know-how developed through personal experience, involving intangible factors like beliefs, perspective, and value systems.

    Capturing Tacit Knowledge

    • Shadowing: a process where a novice observes an expert to learn how they perform their job.
    • Joint Problem Solving: a novice and expert work together to solve a problem, allowing the expert's approach to be revealed to the novice.

    Collaboration and Learning

    • Community of Practice (CoP): a group of individuals sharing common goals and interests, regularly engaging in sharing and learning to achieve those goals.
    • Organizational Network Analysis (ONA): technology used to document and measure information flows among individuals, groups, and organizations.

    Information Management

    • Metadata: data that describes other data.
    • Business Rule Management System (BRMS): software used to define, execute, monitor, and maintain decision logic in operational systems and processes.
    • Enterprise Search: application of search technology to find information within an organization.
    • Enterprise Search Software: software that matches a user's query to multiple sources of information to identify the most important and relevant content.

    Electronic Discovery and Artificial Intelligence

    • Electronic Discovery (E-Discovery): the process of seeking, locating, securing, and searching electronic data for use as evidence in legal cases.
    • Artificial Intelligence (A.I.): the ability to mimic or duplicate human brain functions.
    • A.I. System: a comprehensive system involving people, procedures, hardware, software, data, and knowledge to develop computer systems that simulate human intelligence processes.
    • Intelligent Behaviour: the ability to learn, apply knowledge, handle complex situations, solve problems, and understand visual images.
    • Perceptive System: a system that approximates human perception, seeing, hearing, and feeling objects.
    • Expert System: a system that stores knowledge and makes inferences, enabling novices to perform at the level of an expert.
    • Rule: a conditional statement linking conditions to actions and outcomes.
