Abstract: The three concepts of information science are data, information and knowledge. The structure of one is different from another. The structure of knowledge is more complex than data and information. Knowledge management is complex for traditional information management techniques due its complex structure and difficult to achieve common structure for knowledge captured from heterogeneous sources. Ontology is a upright technology to represent knowledge. Ontology provides homogeneous structure for knowledge acquired from heterogeneous sources. It enables knowledge sharing within and among organizations. Ontology based knowledge management provides a better support for integration of related knowledge sources and searching. The current work proposes a enhanced and clear framework for knowledge management using domain ontology. It addresses major issues of traditional and existing ontology based knowledge management systems.
Keywords: Knowledge, Knowledge Management, Knowledge Representation, Ontology.
