JISC e-Framework Innovation Knowlegebase

An Overview

David Millard (University of Southampton)Tom Franklin (Franklin Consulting)

Who is IK for• for synthesis

• to work with their clients

• to locate relevant work

• to locate services etc

JISC programme managers

Business Analysts

Project staff

Software architects

What is the Innovation Knowledgebase?

• A place to capture activity and outputs– Using Wiki pages and ad-hoc links

• A place to make sense of the domain– Using managed structures and views

• A place to discover and learn about the domain– Browsing the Wiki– Views of the IK– Queries and Search Reality (of the Domain)

Wiki – reflecting reality

IK – understanding reality

What is it

Bridge

The InnovationBase Wiki

• A first port-of-call for people in the domain to record what they do

• A Wiki is unrestrictive– pages can be on anything– but users are encouraged to fit into

existing category structures…– … or extend them

• The IK will use a Semantic Wiki– In a standard Wiki the pages are typed

(categories)– In a semantic Wiki the links are typed as well– Creates a rich hypertext network that can be

queried like a database Reality (of the Domain)

Wiki – reflecting reality

IK – understanding reality

Limitations of a Wiki• Wiki’s are great for ad-hoc

and evolving structure

• But difficult to manage meaningful structures:

– Lists– Networks– Constrained Collections

• Because the users views the knowledge through a single node

Limitations of a Wiki

• A Knowledge-Base has different characteristics

– Good for managed structure and controlled development

– Higher barrier for use: needs more specialist users

• Can we couple a IK with the Wiki to get the best of both worlds?
