Knowledge Sources

Jo Maybin · Palgrave Macmillan UK eBooks · 2016

When we talk about ‘knowledge’ in lay terms, we are usually referring to explicit, propositional knowledge: knowledge that something is the case. In this conceptualisation knowledge is something like an object; it can be acquired, possessed and passed on. It must also have a topic: it is knowledge about something. This is the conceptualisation of knowledge that has underpinned much of the literature on the relationship between evidence and policy, and which was also implicit in my initial conceptualisation of my research question. This first chapter is set in this more traditional paradigm. It asks, where do civil servants turn when they need to learn about a new policy topic?

Institutional Knowledge Sources and Knowledge Management

Fahrettin Özdemirci, Cengiz Hakan Aydın · SHILAP Revista de lepidopterología · 2008

Knowledge has been increasingly seen as a critical institutional source which provides superiority in rivalry. Moreover, the management of knowledge and knowledge sources as a strategic source is the most important factor that increases institutional success. In this framework, it is necessary to determine, arrange and most importantly manage these sources due to a systematic approach. This study focuses on the determination and management of knowledge sources which is the most important factor to achieve successful knowledge management.

Do Knowledge Sources Matter? Exploring the Effects of Knowledge Sources on Knowledge Integration Processes

Jeroen Kraaijenbrink, Fons Wijnhoven, Arend J. Groen · University of Twente Research Information · 2005

Knowledge integration (KI) is the process by which organizations identify, acquire, and utilize knowledge from external sources. Existing studies on KI have either researched what knowledge organizations gain from which sources or what processes are needed to do that. This study assumes that bridging these two research areas will contribute to a better understanding of KI processes. This is particularly needed to design (information) systems that are to support these processes. The results of an international survey amongst high-tech small and medium sized companies indicate that the use of knowledge sources is associated with KI processes but that this relationship is complex. Further descriptive and explanatory research is suggested on both higher and lower levels of detail than of the current study. Subsequently, the use of particular sources and processes should be compared to organizational performance and analyzed for its implications for the design of information systems.

Integrating Disparate Knowledge Sources

Adam Brody Kelly, Kelly L. Dempski, Joseph E. Kaplan et al. · 1999

Today's intranet-based knowledge repositories tend to be large collections of unstructured HTML files combined with some support for relational database information such as sales data or personnel profiles. While each different type of information is available separately using specific tools, there is very little support for browsing between entities stored across multiple repositories. The salesperson mentioned in the sales database is not linked to that person's profile in the personnel system. Such a linkage would be very beneficial. It allows the users to browse easily across repositories and discover new knowledge by exploiting the linkages. This paper presents an approach to semantically integrate disparate and decentralized knowledge repositories within an enterprise. This approach allows the end users to view a large decentralized corporate intranet as one well-integrated repository and to explore thematically related information across databases. An application has be...

Querying structured knowledge sources

Anette Frank, Hans-ulrich Krieger, Feiyu Xu et al. · 2005

We present an implemented approach for domainrestricted question answering from structured knowledge sources, based on robust semantic analysis in a hybrid NLP system architecture. We build on a lexicalsemantic conceptual structure for question interpretation, which is interfaced with domain-specific concepts and properties in a structured knowledge base. Question interpretation involves a limited amount of domain-specific inferences and accounts for quantificational questions. We extract so-called proto queries from the linguistic representation, which provide partial constraints for answer extraction from the underlying knowledge sources. The search queries we construct from proto queries effectively constitute minimum spanning trees that restrict the possible answer candidates. Our approach naturally extends to multilingual question answering and has been developed as a prototype system for two application domains: the domain of Nobel prize winners and the domain of Language Technology, on the basis of the large ontology underlying the information portal LT World.

Western Sources of Knowledge

Hans Martin Krämer · University of Hawaii Press eBooks · 2015

Abstract This chapter reconstructs Shimaji's encounters during his trip to Europe, demonstrating the Western influence on his concept of religion. Instead of treating “the West” or “Christianity” as a black box extraneous to Japan, however, the chapter analyzes the specific attitudes toward Christianity that Shimaji encountered in 1870s Europe and how he negotiated the plurality of Christianities. Throughout the nineteenth century, the role of religion in nation-building was of crucial concern to European intellectuals and political leaders. Those Japanese grappling with religion were thus not presented with a ready result, “the Western concept of religion.” Instead, they encountered a contested field of political discussion and practice.

Creative Sources of Knowledge

Digital Commons-DePaul (DePaul University) · 2019

Faculty are using unique approaches to get their students to think about their studies from different angles. A professor in the Department of Health Sciences takes his class to the DePaul Art Museum to help them connect health care to the people they will serve. Others have their students work alongside history fellows at the Newberry Library to get some high-level, hands-on instruction.

Sources of Missiological Knowledge

Stanley H. Skreslet · International Bulletin of Mission Research · 2025

Missiology has become a complex, interdisciplinary, multicultural, and global research project. An attempt is made in the present essay to profile this wide-ranging scholarly community by describing three distinguishable constituent groups within the whole. The rather broad collection of methods now used to study mission is discussed, alongside the primary means scholars regularly utilize to share different kinds of missiological knowledge with each other apart from books. Reference is made to the current state of Jesuit studies and the recently published Oxford Handbook of Mission Studies , in order to illustrate the still-expanding reach of missiology.
