Abstract :
Uncertainty and imprecision are inherent characteristics of human knowledge and their role in knowledge engineering and knowledge-based systems development has been extensively examined in the literature. However, when it comes to enterprise knowledge management, existence of corresponding frameworks that are able to address the issue of knowledge imprecision in a formal and comprehensive way is limited. With that mind, we present in this paper our work in progress on an integrated knowledge management framework that effectively deals with the above limitation through the utilization of fuzzy semantics.
