Method of Educational Domain Knowledge Content Updating Based on Management Information Interactions

Abstract

The hierarchical Detailed Value Chain Model and Elementary Management Cycle model of educational domain knowledge content updating is formally described and computerized process measures are proposed. The paper provides a method for updating the knowledge of the analyzed domain, referred to as "enterprise domain", based on enterprise modelling in terms of management information interactions. A method, whose formal DVCM and EMC descriptions are provided in BPMN notation, was designed, allowing to develop a two-level (granular) model for describing knowledge of educational domain management information interactions. In implementing this model and its algorithms in technological terms, a subsystem of enterprise knowledge has been created in a knowledge-based CASE system (computerized knowledge-based IS engineering), performing the function of a domain knowledge database. This method is suitable to discover content related to the business enterprise activities and enterprise software development. The main outcome of enterprise modeling approach is the effectiveness of discovering of the deep knowledge, when education domain frameworks are applicable. A computerized management knowledge measure was created that can be applied not only in chosen subject area updating, but other areas as well, such as: the creation and updating of business knowledge bases, the development of BI measures by implementing knowledge bases, the evaluation of the fullness of accumulated repositories' content.

The Requirements Enhancement Based on a Problem Domain Model

“…Related works. The authors have proposed a semi-formal curriculum development procedure based on the use of requirements engineering methods and CASE tools [10], [11]. In previous works, the authors designed and implemented the engineering system of informatics study programs requirements based on the management of requirements documentation processing (requirements are kept in system database).…”
