In this article amaturitymodel for themanagementof transdisciplinaryknowledge ispresented, although research nowadays is transdisciplinary the different maturity models proposed in the literature are oriented towards interdisciplinary knowledgemanagement, and, at most, they are oriented towardmultidisciplinary knowledge management. The objective is proposing an evolutionary model which accepts ...

It is increasingly being recognized that understanding expert knowledge structures associated with critical decision processes may facilitate Naval personnel performance. Toward this end, system developers and training researchers attempt to identify critical components of expert operator assessment and knowledge. Differing domains of practice rely to varying degrees on perceptual and conceptua...

The major determinant of a patient's safety and outcome is the skill and judgment of the surgeon. While knowledge base and decision processing are evaluated during residency, technical skills-which are at the core of the profession-are not evaluated. Innovative state of the art simulation devices that train both surgical tasks and skills, without risk to patients, should allow for the detection...

Diverse types of structured domain models are nowadays in use in various contexts. On the one hand there are generic models, especially domain ontologies, which are typically used in applications with artificial intelligence (reasoning) flavor; on the other hand there are more specific models that only come to use in areas like software engineering or business analysis. Furthermore, the discipl...

In our recent paper [1], we describe a biology-driven approach to translate cancer genomic data into clinically actionable information for personalized patient therapy selection. Despite the increasing knowledge on intracellular signal transduction pathways as drivers of tumor growth, and the corresponding development of a large number of " targeted drugs " to correct aberrant pathway behavior ...

most current conceptualisation of knowledge transfer emerges from the premise of occidental heritage. this paper examines the dialectical procedure, underpinning the unification of knowledge as an entity, and discusses dimensions of knowledge and knowledge transfer from the practitioner’s perspective. the study asks why, if knowledge is vital for business success and competitive advantage, the ...
