An organization may also build subject-specific knowledge bases to collate information on key topics or processes. Knowledge base is also sometimes used to describe a database of information. The nuclear industry has a variety of knowledge bases; some are industry wide, such as the IAEA’s Power Reactor Information System (PRIS) database and International Nuclear Information System (INIS) database. Knowledge bases of NPP operating organizations include plant procedure systems, system description documents and technical manuals.
