Abstract

Knowledge mapping can be performed in many different ways on the web, today. One of them, and increasingly popular, are social networks where people can share various content among friends, in user groups or with public. However, the majority of these networks are for socializing and entertainment. To emphasize the work and results we use teleology, a branch of philosophy, that claims that each object has a final purpose. In this paper, we introduce a framework for knowledge mapping where teleological perspective of knowledge is mapped and predefined ontology provides its context. Thus, we are able to design a social network for strategic knowledge mapping, useful to track objectives and areas of interest in academic as well as in business environment.
