Overview

Knowledge is a vital organization resource. It is the raw material, work-in-process, and finished good of decision making. Distinct types of knowledge used by decision makers include information, procedures, and heuristics, among others. An ability to adeptly manage such diverse types of knowledge is crucial for the productivity of both individual decision makers and the organizations within which they work. A variety of computer-based techniques for managing knowledge (i.e., representing and processing it) have been and will continue to be devised to supplement innate human knowledge management skills. As a field of study, knowledge management is concerned with the invention, improvement, integration, usage, administration, evaluation, and impacts of such techniques. Progress in this field has significant implications for individual effectiveness within organizations, organizational competitiveness in the global marketplace, and economic success of states or regions. These simple but important observations lie at the foundation of the Kentucky Initiative for Knowledge Management (KIKM). Established in 1988 within the University of Kentucky's College of Business and Economics, KIKM's purpose is 1) to foster cutting-edge research that stimulates, discovers, and explores new computer-based possibilities for knowledge management, making notable contributions to the advance of the field; 2) facilitate effective, up-to-date instruction about the rapidly growing and changing field of knowledge management, including computer-based possibilities for supporting the decision making, communication, and coordination of individuals, groups, and organizations; 3) establish a reputation for innovation and expertise in knowledge management, bringing a degree of visibility that can help attract, spawn, and enhance business in the state, as well as adding to the prestige of the College of Business and Economics and the University of Kentucky. KIKM serves as a focal point, vehicle, and support unit for those who seek to participate in working toward the fulfillment of these purposes.

KIKM activities that aim to support the objective of the College being recognized as a first-rate institution in knowledge management research and education include the following:

• attracting promising students and faculty by building an academic/research program recognized on a national basis,
• maintenance of advanced computer lab facilities for conducting research on knowledge management issues,
• timely dissemination of research results through the KIKM series of research papers and occasional KIKM monographs,
• covering research expenses of doctoral students and faculty in the area of decision science and information systems (DSIS),
• funding summer research assistantships for DSIS doctoral students,
• working on knowledge management issues with faculty at affiliated Kentucky institutions to raise the caliber of higher education and research in state-assisted universities across the state,
• participation in the sponsorship and organization of conferences concerned with knowledge management,
• providing complementary support for research funded by external agencies,
• sponsoring guest speakers, seminars, and the professional development of students and faculty,
• cooperating with other initiatives, centers, and institutes concerned with bridging the realms of management and technology.

Structurally, KIKM has the following participants:

• the KIKM Director who oversees the foregoing activities,
• a teaching assistant whose duties are dedicated to operating and maintaining the lab facilities in support of graduate education,
• part-time staff assistance for the Director,
• the KIKM Faculty Associates who contribute to the KIKM research paper series and teach in the area of decision science and information systems at the University of Kentucky,
• the KIKM Affiliates composed of departments at other state-assisted universities whose faculty members conduct research and teaching related to knowledge management,
• the KIKM Liaisons consisting of one representative from each KIKM Affiliate.

Funding for KIKM activities comes from endowments, College support of the teaching assistants and staff, University equipment grants, University incentive program awards for external grants obtained by KIKM Faculty Associates, contributions by KIKM Affiliates, and individual and corporate sponsorship. Prospective sponsors are invited to contact:

Research Projects

Current and recently completed research projects by KIKM Faculty Associates and their doctoral students have depended heavily on KIKM research facilities and funding. These include:

• Implementation of a distributed computer-based system for studying contract net effects and alternatives. This system is sufficiently parametric to allow it to mimic contract net concepts and variations reported in the literature. As such it has served as a platform for studying hypotheses about multiparticipant FMS scheduling.
• Implementation of knowledge acquisition software for eliciting behaviors of experts in treating uncertainty. This software has enabled an experiment studying hypotheses about alternative certainty factor algebras proposed for expert system development.
• Implementation of a system for laboratory experimentation for the study of DSS evaluation issues. Using this system, hypotheses of a DSS framework involving ex-ante and ex-post evaluation were examined.
• Use of GroupSystems to examine effects of alternative usage patterns in unstructured group decision making.
• Implementation of an experimental environment for analysis of electronic markets and use of that system to study insider trading issues.
• Implementation of a system to examine effects of group size, risk taking, and decision rules on solution time and quality in cases of knowledge acquisition from groups of experts during expert system development.
• Extensive simulation studies of machine learning approaches in the context of flexible manufacturing system scheduling.
• Implementation of a distributed system to permit laboratory study of hypotheses about aggregation methods employed by multiple participants engaged in multicriteria decision making.
• Implementation of software for testing the generalizability of a specific genetics-driven DSS in simulated manufacturing environments. - Implementation of a system to exhaustively test a genetic algorithm input parameter specification method.
• Implementation of a job shop scheduling system that allows an experimental investigation of the effectiveness of a local search technique called beam search. The system can be used in a variety of research projects related to scheduling and searching (e.g., benchmark problems and existing test cases are used in a performance analysis of the search technique).
• Implementation of a genetic algorithm machine learning technique to discover relevant attributes for part family formation in group technology. Existing data from two local manufacturing companies is being collected and used for this study. This research is expected to open up new avenues for the study of knowledge acquisition automation.
• A Delphi study to establish a descriptive framework for characterizing organizations' knowledge management.
• A survey-based study of environmental impact theory from the standpoint of information technology management.
• Implementation of an expert system for assessing internal control weaknesses and use of that system in studying its value for training and decision support of managers.
• A survey-based study on the competitive impact of alignment between information systems strategy and business strategy.
• An empirical investigation of information systems planning autonomy in US-based subsidiaries of globally competing firms.
• Development of a generic model of knowledge management activities, called the Knowledge Chain. This model is examined with respect to examples in the literature and a survey that examines the relationship between the model activities and competitiveness
• An investigation of the relationship between enterprise systems and decision support intentions, characteristics, and benefits.

Such projects have resulted in multiple dissertations and numerous research papers.
