Abstract

Knowledge is connected to a subject (a theory, a lesson) but Process Knowledge is connected to an object and to its production process. This leads to the need for a specific approach to the actual use of process knowledge models while carrying out processes. Models may then be constructed to guide, support and provide advice or instructions to users.
