INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT: ADVANCES, APPROACHES, CHALLENGES, AND CRITICAL ISSUES

摘要

Design, implementation, and management of real-life systems functioning in information reach environments of our "information society" and require greater understanding about the role of data, information, and knowledge in systems operation. Today, a growing complexity of information and knowledge flow is a characteristic of a majority of industries. Systems also operate in changing environments surrounded by numerous uncertainties and disturbances. Difficulties arise from unexpected tasks and events and from a multitude of possible failures and other interactions during an attempt to control various activities in dynamic environments. Therefore, information and knowledge management are two of the most important aspects to be considered in modern intelligent systems development, which are expected to solve unforeseen problems, even on the basis of incomplete and imprecise data, information, or knowledge.
