Abstract

One of the consequences of the changing regulatory social and economic environment is the growing demand to efficiently manage intellectual capital as corporate assets. Intellectual capital is closely coupled to knowledge that is embedded in business processes. The book provides an overview in a nutshell of ProKEX research. The goal of the ProKEX solution is to extract, organize, share and preserve knowledge embedded in organizational processes in order to (1) enrich organizational knowledge bases in a systematic and controlled way (2) support employees to be better able to acquire their job role specific knowledge, (3) and to help govern and plan human capital investment. The chapters provides deeper understanding the components, as semantic business process management, text mining, knowledge representation and transfer, adaptive testing, compliance checking.
