OPERATION OF A KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR FINAL DISPOSAL

摘要

In order to manage the available information and knowledge in the field of final disposal, arnknowledge management system (kms) for final disposal issues has been developed in Germany.rnThe system is based on Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server. The server is installed atrnGesellschaft für Anlagen- und Reaktorsicherheit (GRS) in Garching near Munich. Access to therndata is possible by the use of Internet, dedicated lines or the GRS-company network.rnThe database of kms consists of a collection of documents and metadata for each document. Therninformation in kms is organized in a three dimensional structure, which allows a convenient andrnprecise data access. The properties of the documents have been supplemented by additionalrnmetadata, particularly for evaluation purposes. The standard query form of SharePoint has beenrnadapted for an adequate data access supporting the three dimensional structure and thernsupplemented metadata.rnSources for the documents included in kms are the Internet, conferences, publications andrnprofessional journals. All documents of kms are pdf-formatted. Once a document is stored in kms,rna set of basis metadata such as title, author etc. is assigned. At a later phase information aboutrncategorization and evaluation is added.rnThe kms serves not only for convenient, comprehensive and precise information provision, it alsornstates a useful tool for expert working on the field of final disposal, e.g., as a documentrnrepository for the various projects.
