A well run and structured system for Managing Engineering Knowledgecan literally prevent engineers from having to re-invent the wheel,saving precious expert time and effort. Exploiting the capitalassociated with design knowledge has been shown to releaseconsiderable savings in the cost and lead times for detail designof new products. Until now there has been no common way of collecting,structuring, and formalizing the engineering knowledge associatedwith designs. This not only makes it hard to plan and organize theprocess of building knowledge based engineering applications, butalso means that updating them and re-using modules is almostimpossible. MOKA ? methodology and software tools oriented toknowledge-based engineering applications ? was created tofill this need. It is a practical tool to help those involved withbuilding systems that represent knowledge, rather than a set ofacademic principles. Managing Engineering Knowledge is a comprehensive user guideto the methodology. Managing Engineering Knowledge caters for a wide range ofpeople and backgrounds ? including general managers operatingat the strategic level, project managers, engineering designers,information technologists, system modellers, and technicalanalysts.
