Process Knowledge Maps for Academic Excellence

Abstract

This paper addresses a problem of requirement of managing the knowledge in an academic set up. The focus is on development of process knowledge maps. The academic infrastructure is passive and does require intellectual inputs of the stakeholders for speedy outcome and consistent supply chain. The process knowledge maps deal with the passive models and attempt to make them active and dynamic. The role of process knowledge maps is analogous to the role of dynamic information structure in the software. In addition, these maps add value to the system for better communication and consistent functioning. We present an intrinsic model of process knowledge maps, a multilevel hierarchy and 8-C model of k-map development.
