Knowledge management in a South African organization: application and comparison of the work of Nonaka nad Takeuchi to practice.Harry, Ricardo January 2005 (has links)
<p>The aim of this thesis is to provide a better understanding of how the knowledge creation process can be used to add value to the management of knowledge in a South African organization. This thesis describes, explores and explains how knowledge is created within an organization, how the organization can use it to add value to its current business practices and how a knowledge management methodology that is aligned with the systems thinking principle, can be used to manage the knowledge creation process.</p>

Increasing the process capacity of a knowledge intensive process through the use of process reengineering and knowledge-value added methodologiesBaxter, Joseph L., Campbell, Errol A. 06 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. / In the increasingly dynamic environment of information technology, it has become imperative that organizations continue to seek ways to effectively capture and measure knowledge in order to survive. With the emergence of a global economy and information networks, the knowledge creating capacity within organizations has grown tremendously. As a result, organizations are now shifting their focus to management of the knowledge used in executing processes and producing products. As demand for quality products and services continues to grow, companies must now find ways to effectively manage knowledge intensive processes in order to increase overall process capacity. Through business process reengineering and the KVA methodology, this thesis will seek to identify ways in which the performance of knowledge assets can be measured and make recommendations to improve the capacity of knowledge intensive processes, better enabling organizations to meet increased demand. / Lieutenant, United States Navy / Major, United States Marine Corps

Effective knowledge management as a performance enhancing tool in construction project managementTaiwo, Adekunle Olajide 21 April 2008 (has links)
Knowledge management is concerned with the development and exploitation of
the knowledge assets of an organisation with a view to furthering the
organisations’ objectives. The vital role that knowledge management processes
plays in the performance of business organisations has been the basis of several
studies - a number of companies, operating in various other industries, have
proven the need for, and performance enhancing benefits of, adopting knowledge
management processes in one form or the other. Taking these accounts into
consideration, this research study attempts to test the hypothesis that effective
knowledge management use would constitute a performance enhancing tool in
construction project management enterprise in South Africa. The research survey
is thus carried out among construction project management professionals in South
Africa.
The levels of awareness and use of knowledge management systems among
construction project management professionals in South Africa is researched into;
this revealed a mostly “medium to high” level of awareness and use. The Project
Efficiency Review approach to performance measurement is primarily adopted for
this study. This showed limited correlation between knowledge management use
and enhanced performance in construction project performance. Other
performance measurement approaches (Metrics, Economic and Market Value
approaches) also showed limited correlation. Two causative factors for this
situation are construction project scope changes and schedule delays, which are
seemingly pervasive in contemporary South Africa. As such, further research is
recommended to establish more appropriate “objective” performance
measurement approaches that would be able to accommodate these complexities.
This would facilitate the making of a business case for knowledge management
use in construction project management.

Explaining and Alleviating Information Management Indeterminism: A Knowledge-based FrameworkChen, Hsinchun, Danowitz, A.K., Lynch, K.J., Goodman, S.E., McHenry, W.K. 07 1900 (has links)
Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona / Our research attempted to identify the nature and causes of information
management indeterminism in an online research environment and to propose solutions
for alleviating this indeterminism. We conducted two empirical studies of information
management activities. The first study identified the types and nature of information
management indeterminism by evaluating archived texts. The second study focused on
four sources of indeterminism: subject area knowledge, classification knowledge, system
knowledge, and collaboration knowledge. A knowledge-based design for alleviating
indeterminism, which contains a system-generated thesaurus and an inferencing engine,
is also proposed in this article.

Knowledge Management: Challenges for the special librarianWeerasinghe, Shivanthi January 2006 (has links)
Knowledge Management is considered important for organizational development, and organizational librarians are seen as capable players in this field. This paper presents the view that special libraries can be places for the knowledge management practices but concludes that the librarians have to move from their passive roles and assume the roles of partners in this environment.

COPLINK: A case of intelligent analysis and knowledge managementHauck, Roslin V., Chen, Hsinchun January 1999 (has links)
Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona / Law enforcement agencies across the United States have begun to focus on innovative knowledge management
technologies to aid in the analysis of criminal information. The use of such technologies can serve as
intelligence tools to combat criminal activity by aiding in case investigation or even by predicting criminal
activity. Funded by the National Institute of Justice, the University of Arizonaâ s Artificial Intelligence Lab has
teamed with the Tucson Police Department (TPD) to develop the Coplink Concept Space application, which
serves to uncover relationships between different types of information currently existing in TPDâ s records
management system. A small-scale field study involving real law enforcement personnel indicates that the use
of Coplink Concept Space can reduce the time spent on the investigative task of linking criminal information
as well as provide strong arguments for expanded development of similar knowledge management systems in
support of law enforcement.
