METHOD AND SYSTEM TO MANAGE COMPLEX SYSTEMS KNOWLEDGE

Managing complex systems knowledge involves monitoring information generated during operation of a complex system. This information is normalized to a complex system base element that is expressed according to a standardized element taxonomy. During normalization, the information inherits characteristics of the base element. Following normalization, the information is stored in an information database. This information can be used to do any one or more of design, construct, operate, automate and otherwise configure another complex system.
