Abstract
Knowledge management is an overarching term referring to the ability to identify, store, and retrieve knowledge. Identification requires gathering the information needed and to analyze available data to make effective decisions regarding whatever the organization does. This include research, digging through records, or gathering data from wherever it can be found. Storage and retrieval of data involves database management , using many tools developed by computer science. Thus knowledge management involves understanding what knowledge is important to the organization, understanding systems important to organizational decision making, database management , and analytic tools of data mining .
