Knowledge Management and Engineering with Decisional DNA
About this ebook
This is the first book on experience-based knowledge representation and knowledge management using the unique Decisional DNA (DDNA) technology. The DDNA concept is roughly a decade old, and is rapidly attracting increasing attention and interest among researchers and practitioners. This comprehensive book provides guidelines to help readers develop experience-based tools and approaches for smart engineering of knowledge, data and information. It does not attempt to offer ultimate answers, but instead presents ideas and a number of real-world case studies to explore and exemplify the complexities and challenges of modern knowledge engineering issues. It also increases readers’ awareness of the multifaceted interdisciplinary character of such issues to enable them to consider – in different ways – developing, evaluating, and supporting smart knowledge engineering systems that use DDNA technology based on experience.
About the author
Dr. Cesar Sanin counts with extensive experience in the development of knowledge engineering and intelligent technologies for the past 17 years. He gained studies in the Bachelor of Systems Engineering from EAFIT University, Colombia; Administrative Engineering from the National University of Colombia; and an IT Diploma at The University of Newcastle, Australia. Afterwards, he pursued a PhD degree at the School of Engineering of The University of Newcastle and received his degree in the field of Knowledge Engineering and Intelligent Technologies (2007). Currently, he continues his work at The University of Newcastle as a co-director of the Knowledge Engineering Research Team – KERT, where he mainly contributes to the expansion and use of knowledge engineering, decision support systems and intelligent systems for engineering and business.
