Knowledge elicitation process allows acquiring and transferring the knowledge. This process presents difficulties to select the appropriate elicitation technique. This paper presents a classification of the elicitation techniques used in software engineering and the relationship between the elicitation techniques and some elements of knowledge management as assets knowledge, epistemological dimension of knowledge and the knowledge creation phases. This classification provides a guideline to select a technique or a set of techniques for knowledge elicitation based on phases of Nonaka’s model.
The knowledge elicitation process allows for the acquiring and transferring of knowledge. Actually, this process presents difficulties when selecting the appropriate elicitation technique. This chapter presents a classification of the elicitation techniques used in software engineering and the relationship between the elicitation techniques and some elements of knowledge management such as assets knowledge, epistemological dimension of knowledge and the knowledge creation phases. This classification provides a guideline to select a technique or a set of techniques for knowledge elicitation based on phases of Nonaka's model. Additionally, the chapter presents the use of product patterns in knowledge elicitation, and defines a product pattern as formal representation mechanism for each of the knowledge assets defined and presented in this chapter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
