Abstract

Development of large projects is a knowledge intensive task. Applying knowledge management techniques to project activities can enhance productivity and reduce risks of failures. However, it has been observed that knowledge management activities suffer from problems such as unavailability of structured information and lack of incentives to put extra efforts for these activities. In this paper, we present a tool that captures architectural knowledge from documents and emails and stores it in more structured manner in knowledge repositories with minimum user intervention, thus minimizing the required amount of effort.
