ABSTRACT

Goals always represent what a concept is for but not how the concept is applied to achieve those goals (capabilities). They also convey the enduring business rules under which the capabilities of a concept must function and act. Goals are important and critical pieces for the formation of knowledge maps. They are important and mandatory, because they encapsulate a discipline’s rationale and retrospective. This rationale and retrospective analysis will embed the appropriate axioms or rules under which a knowledge map will be exploited. By discovering these goals, we can have a more precise idea of what problem domains and their nature really is and the elements that are necessary to solve it.
