King Street

This paper presents a semantic framework for supporting the cost–benefit analysis in urban transit rehabilitation decisions. The use of semantic representations of decision parameters allows for more effective knowledge management practice and easier accumulation and access of corporate knowledge regarding balancing traditional construction investments with the costs to the environment, local business, and impacts on traffic. A sample illustrative case was considered by this study. It includes a comparison of a hypothetical scenario of building a monorail to replace an existing streetcar in one of Toronto's most congested streets: King Street. A microscopic simulation model for the King Street route has been developed and used in comparing the status quo to the proposed scenario in terms of impacts on traffic performance. A cost–benefit analysis has been conducted to assess the feasibility of both options. The study investigated direct costs such as monorail construction cost, streetcar system removal cost, and operating and maintenance costs of both systems. The sustainability-related costs included user costs and accident costs.Key words: sustainable infrastructure, knowledge management, cost–benefit analysis.

Current Trends

Growing concern over the state of Knowledge Management (KM) in the Czech Republic has compelled both researchers and practitioners to document current trends. Our study in particular demonstrates that there is a growing awareness to promote KM as the appropriate vehicle to enhance and increase competitiveness and profitability no matter to what specific industry the enterprises may belong. Through KM adoption, the organisation develops a more customer-concentrated approach that sequentially increases internal efficiencies. Research in this area continues. It aspires to provide KM managers with the appropriate tools leading to successful KM implementation especially within the Czech Republic. This chapter analyses existing KM benefits and monitoring methods, and also explores a modified Cost-Benefit Analysis method focused on KM projects. It centres the customer and the general market environment as knowledge sources used to evaluate the appropriateness of a KM project.
