Knowledge Architecture Operation
After brief background and knowledge-architecture-basics considerations, this section
considers basic knowledge architecture operations, especially around three main axes:
modeling, management, and sharing.
Modeling
Modelingseems to clearly be the most fundamental knowledge architecture operation, especially
as not only is it key knowledge sharing by providing ways to express and represent
knowledge, for communication, not only is it also key to knowledge management, but
it also provides interfaces and tools for governance of knowledge, knowledge architecture,
and to applications. More so, the more complex the applications, the more useful and
powerful modeling can be.
Management Whether for sharing, or simply to develop more or better knowledge, knowledgeManagementseems to clearly be the most common knowledge architecture operation. While not the
most complex or sophisticated, it is clearly the most elaborate, especially as it
comprises vast numbers of tasks, constraints, tools and applications.
Sharing Based on sophisticated and complex principles like trust, context and background commonality,
notation forms, communications, and general awareness, KnowledgeSharingseems to clearly be the most complex and sophisticated knowledge architecture operation,
as well as probably the most sophisticated operation that any being may be capable
of. Of course, this sophistication carries complexity and fragility, as well as the
need for built-in tracking, error detection, and correction, at all levels. Yet, knowledge
sharing is key, as it defines the effective value of knowledge.
