Design of knowledge representation and measuring method for enterprise knowledge network based on task modularisation

ABSTRACT

A knowledge-measuring method applicable to enterprises’ production is constructed and a simulation is carried out to prove the applicability of the method. First, the total amount of knowledge increases exponentially with the increase of task modularisations. Second, the relationship between single-task modularisations makes the amount at a lower level; however, as the types of relationship between modularisations become increasingly rich and when various relationships between modularisations achieve equilibrium, the total amount would reach a higher level. Meanwhile, the total amount of knowledge in knowledge networks shows a linear growth with the increase of comprehensive measuring of relationship between inter-modularisation elements.
