Corax Knowledge Structure Map Browser: Corax is a Macromedia Flash based file that takes its data from two xml files that can be exported directly from the Knowledge Study Tool. Corax is a special purpose information display tool for a Knowledge Study. It can be used as a stand alone application or embedded within a web page. If the two xml files are placed in the same directory as Corax. The knowledge study information will be available when Corax is launched.

Idea and Problem Clarification: A Knowledge Study method can shed light on a problem or new idea, offer knowledge based options and generally clarify problems and ideas in a methodical way.

Innovation Improvement: Innovation and continuous Improvement could be looked on as a cultural issue. That means that there needs to be a culture for progressive improvement within the business.

Innovation Program: Innovation is a complex topic and developing innovation within an organisation is likely to be a long term commitment. This means that those responsible for the organisation need to understand what they mean by innovation and what they want it to achieve.

Innovation Services: Innovation is a complex concept and it can be difficult to make it an integral part of the way an organisation works. Each organisation will need to develop a program for innovation based on its own specific circumstances and needs.

Interviewing: Many organisations have a need for knowledge and skills connected with interviewing in general. There are many types and functions of interviews and there is underpinning knowledge associated with all of them. This work considered the interview in its general sense and does not attempt to prescribe methods for individual interview cases.

Knowledge Management Strategy: When a method or an approach is seen to be beneficial then people may seek to apply the method or adopt the approach because of the perception of benefit.

Knowledge Resource Study: Knowledge Structure mapping is a tool designed to help organisations to consider the knowledge resource as an integral part of management and development.

Knowledge Services: Find out our Knowledge Services could help your business capitalise on it's Knowledge Asset. We can help you to improve innovation within your organisation, develop a strategy for knowledge management, clarify your ideas and problems to find innovative solutions and develop your staff by studying their knowledge.

Knowledge Structure Mapping: A KSM is an organised visual map containing nodes and connecting lines (arcs) and showing a knowledge area. A complete map also contains expert opinion about the knowledge area being shown.

Knowledge Study: Do you really know what your company knows? Discover how studying the structure of the knowledge that your industry specialists hold can yield tangible benefits for your business. Find out how Knowledge Structure Mapping can be used to investigate expert company knowledge and create a visualisation of your knowledge asset that can be used as a powerful knowledge management tool.

Knowledge Tools: Knowledge Study is a method or approach rather than a technology. However, its application is greatly assisted through a purpose built Knowledge Study Tool (KST). This tool provides support for the construction and manipulation of Knowledge Structure Maps (KSM), the collection of data and the inspection of data.

Methodology: A simplified account of the methodology that is used to construct a Knowledge Structure Map. Only the activity phase is discussed but this is the main operational component of the methodology.

Staff Support: AKRI can draw upon considerable experience in knowledge gained over very many years in a Learning capacity, in a Work capacity, in a Training capacity, in a Teaching capacity, in a Machine Intelligence capacity, in a Philosophical capacity and in a Neuroscience capacity.

Using Knowledge Study: Knowledge Structure Mapping can be applied in a varsity of ways. It is important to consider the goals and constraints of a study and select a method that is appropriate for these goals and constraints.

Using parameters to collect data: People can have very complex opinions and beliefs about the information they hold. Eliciting this opinion in a way that can reveal analytical data is an interesting area of study.

Where KSM has been applied: Lists examples of actual Knowledge Structure Mapping Projects and features a typical case study constructed from an overview of several successful projects. Anywhere knowledge is needed; it can be studied through a KSM approach.

Why Study Knowledge?: Knowledge is a central component of almost all human activities, or at least the organisational ones. Because of this ubiquity, knowledge is often overlooked as a discrete component of success. Focus is easily diverted towards easier to manage relations of knowledge.
