Knowledge, Knowledge management and Knowledge management systems:
A significant amount of literature has been published on topic of knowledge and knowledge management during the last twenty years. According to Oxford Dictionary, “knowledge is the sum of what is known and resides in the intelligence and the competence of people”(Dictionaries, 2010). In 1998, Davenport et al. published a paper in which they described knowledge concept; he said that knowledge is combination of information from different discipline such as sociology, economics, and management science with experience, context, interpretation and reflection of human activites. Alavi and Leidner (2001) define, knowledge is a process to covert raw data into meaningful information and

Davenport (1998, p43) explain, “Knowledge management is the process of capturing, distributing, and effectively using knowledge”. According to Nassuora (2011, p. 31) , knowledge management (KM) is all managerial activities which helps to employee create new knowledge and share this knowledge to other employee for improve organizational and individual performance in an organization. Knowledge management is a process for generating new knowledge; organizing that knowledge systematically and communicating both tacit and explicit knowledge of employees to other employees for improve productivity in their work place(Alavi & Leider, 1999).Koenig (2012) defines. "Knowledge management is a discipline that promotes an integrated approach to identifying, capturing, evaluating, retrieving, and sharing all of an enterprise's information …show more content…
It was originally developed by Davis, Bagozzi and Warshaw (1989) and has been viewed as one of the most influential theory extensions of the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA)(Ajzen & Fishbein, 1975) . According to theory of reasoned action the authors demonstrated causes of variance behavior of human in specific situation .TRA model ,scholar’s said that individual behavior depends on individual’s behavior intention and behavior intention inspired by individual attitude toward the behavior and subjective norms (Surendran, 2012). Based on the theory of reasoned action (TRA) ,TAM model created two major basic beliefs perceived usefulness (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEOU) for identify the reason of information system acceptance by individual (Taylor & Todd, 1995). Davis (1989, p. 320) noted that Perceived Usefulness(PU) is individual beliefs regarding information system for use or not to use , because people have a tendency to adopt the system easily when they have a perception that information system will help them improve their job performance. Other belief Perceived ease of use denotes to "the degree to which an individual believes that using an information system would be free of effort"(Davis, 1989, p. 320). TAM Model again revise by Szajna (1996) and Venkatesh (2000) TAM 2 and TAM 3(Venkatesh & Bala, 2008) for determine the other
With reading ATP 6-01.1 it has helped me to understand the meaning of Knowledge Management and Knowledge Management tools that we use every day without realizing that we are. As a society we are spoiled to the amount of digital information that is so readily available to for us to use. The use of computers, tablets, smart phones are tools that we use every day in the military and in the civilian arena.
The primary purpose of a knowledge management system in an organization is to create value within the organization by maximizing use of knowledge (Leidner & Becerra-Fernandez, 2008).
4. Calculate the difference amidst theoretical, simulated and practical values. 5. Consult Hishan to probe in details about problematic components. 6.
It is information that's adapted to a purpose to create emotion and meaning to the world. Knowledge should not be expected to be perfect. Knowledge is created by imaginative and critical thought. Knowledge for the future helps us think outside the box to be able to communicate logically with one another.
In addition, through the lens of the internal working models, the
Apple understands that a knowledge management system is a complex system consisting of both the people who work in the company, processes, procedures and information systems that drive their
This asset mix has a mean cost per employed person of 794. The CTE(90) is 879 which is within the “10% deviation from mean” boundaries the proposed requirement set. In the event of adverse market, we need to put more conservatism into our consideration. It is expected that more outcomes will occur close to the worst scenarios we have tested. Therefore, for the adverse market, we should choose CTE(95) as we weighted more heavily on the 5% worst scenarios.
If x(n) is N1 point sequence, if y(n) is N2 point sequence, if rxy (m) is the correlation sequence starts at m=m1, then the value of m corresponding to last sample of rxy (m) is a) b)c)d) 14. For a system, y(n)=nx(n), the inverse system will be, a) y(1/n) b) y(n)/n c) ny(n) d) n-1y(n) 15. The evaluation of correlation involves, a) Shifting, rotating and summation b) Shifting, multiplication and summation c) Change of index, folding and summation d) Change of index, folding, shifting and multiplication 16. Z-transform of x(n)=δ(n) a) -1
This contains and includes the briefing about the details and justification of the variables used and identified for the study. Reasoned Action Theory is supported by Martin Fishbein and Icek Ajzen 's. To illustrate, this model has the origin in the social psychology field that defines the two elements which are attitudes and norms, that are used to predict behavioral intent. This model states that an individual 's behavior is determined by his or her intentions in performing it. This theory summarizes equations, that the attitude along with subjective norms is equal and same to

Knowledge management is a process to ensure that knowledge developed through individuals and group work activities is effectively captured and made available to those who may benefit from it. An example would be to build into project plans the time for review and to identify at the outset how information, knowledge and experience will be captured, stored and shared with other individuals and/or areas of the organisation that may have an interest in the experience and knowledge gained as a result of the project. The importance and value of knowledge management has been brought into sharper focus in the current climate of financial constraint and the need to do more with
In this world we live in, it revolves around knowledge and wisdom. As humans, we always crave for something more—more about things we know, knowledge about things we don’t know about. Therefore, we dig deeper to know more about ourselves, don’t we? Knowledge, as defined, is the fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association. Every day that we face bears new experiences which we encounter for us to learn.
Concluding finally the underwhelming fact that “the TPB is an extension of the TRA”. They quote that Ajzen and Madden (1986) research was “the first to complete testing of the theory of planned behaviour”. Connor and Norman (2005: pg. 170) highlight the validity of both methods (TRA/TPB) towards the overall goal “Both models are considered deliberative processing models that imply that people’s attitudes are formed after careful consideration of the available
information systems to improve job efficiency). Applied to social media, the model fails to take into account characteristics specific to social media such as the “entertainment” component and it being used primarily in an individual, personal, voluntary and non-organizational setting (Rauniar et al., 2014). This is rather logical as the model was developed before the advent of social media. Consequently, a more unified model called the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) was formulated by Venkatesh, Morris, G. Davis & F. Davis (2003) to address the shortcomings of the theoretical models before including TAM. The UTAUT model has been adjusted to better fit today’s various technological contexts.
