Definition

Knowledge model is A representation of knowledge used to understand and communicate an aspect of knowledge in the real world.

Summary

A knowledge model describes some aspects of knowledge KM for the purposes of understanding and communication.

Description

There are a number of models which are commonly used in describing knowledge. The models emphasise different elements of knowledge and represent them at different levels of complexity. Some illustrate only the major components of knowledge, others also illustrate systems, subsystems and even processes. This article describes some of those that have been used in IAEA publications in an ascending order of complexity.
