The Hammond River Institute (HRI)'s Special Interest Group for Knowledge Management (sig:km) is one of the two primary groups defining the methods and practices driving HRI's cloud based collaborative efforts to do real projects using distributed, independent resources who are not supported by typical corporate administrative and hardware offices.
While the Project Management SIG looks at the individual components of a project in the light of cloud based project deliverables and artifacts - sig:km is concerned with gathering the experiences of doing real projects and collecting the public domain, reusable information from them and making it available for future projects. (.a.k.a "knowledge capture")
It is sig:km that has established the device of Special Interest Groups as a way of gathering together specialists in areas that are commonly spoken of in the current business world. (Most of us recognize that Accounting and Human Resources are specialties of their own - speak their own language - and have their own objects of worship - such as Financial Statements and Job Descriptions that only they know how to do properly.)
Unfortunately - "Of the making of many Special Interest Groups there is no end, and many Deliverables wearies the flesh" (as King Solomon would have said had he been born a few thousand years later). It would have been easy to come up with a hundred or more sig's - so and effort was made to mush as many groups together under one roof as possible - and reduce it to a mere 30 or so sig's. (And NO - Engineering is NOT one sig - live with it. Software should be - but it kind of out of hand early on and hasn't been beat back into place yet.)
In summary - the construction of the hrican.org website - such as it is - is an effort by sig:km to crate an entry point into all the other stuff that HRI wants to do and is a Project the way that everything at HRI is a Project (including the existence of HRI) and is project hri07e. The deliverables from this project include this website and all of the sig websites and are formatted according to the templates created as a result of the project. Or rather - that was the theory -
- in theory - the Theory and the Practice are the same - in practice they're not (Yogi Berra not - how sad)
Knowledge Management (KM) in this project SIG is simply the collection of concepts and artifacts that govern how the various parts of an hri07e project work together. This will no doubt grow over time but it is used in a rather limited sense for the time being.
