Book excerpt: Throughout the industry, financial institutions seek to eliminate cumbersome authentication methods, such as PINs, passwords, and security questions, as these antiquated tactics prove increasingly weak. Thus, many organizations now aim to implement emerging technologies in an effort to validate identities with greater certainty. The near instantaneous nature of online banking, purchases, transactions, and payments puts tremendous pressure on banks to secure their operations and procedures. In order to reduce the risk of human error in financial domains, expert systems are seen to offer a great advantage in big data environments. Besides their efficiency in quantitative analysis such as profitability, banking management, and strategic financial planning, expert systems have successfully treated qualitative issues including financial analysis, investment advisories, and knowledge-based decision support systems. Due to the increase in financial applications’ size, complexity, and number of components, it is no longer practical to anticipate and model all possible interactions and data processing in these applications using the traditional data processing model. The emergence of new research areas is clear evidence of the rise of new demands and requirements of modern real-life applications to be more intelligent. This book provides an exhaustive review of the roles of expert systems within the financial sector, with particular reference to big data environments. In addition, it offers a collection of high-quality research that addresses broad challenges in both theoretical and application aspects of intelligent and expert systems in finance. The book serves to aid the continued efforts of the application of intelligent systems that respond to the problem of big data processing in a smart banking and financial environment.

Download or read book A Strategic Knowledge Management Model for the Financial Services Industry written by Carsten Held and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of knowledge is still marked by a general plurality of perspectives, leading to a multitude of different definitions of knowledge as well as different proposals for models and frameworks, all of which are intertwined with and influenced by a vast collection of academic disciplines. Thus, leaving the isolated usage of single knowledge management methods such as best practices or lessons learned aside, it is almost impossible for practitioners to easily take any existing scientific knowledge management model, transform it in accordance with the single firm?s conditions and then align it with its overall strategic management. This overall state of knowledge management within the literature, as well as the rather confused state amongst practitioners, highly influenced this study. Additionally, given the sometimes fundamental differences between certain industries as well as cultures, it is doubtful that a knowledge management model that claims to be designed for practice can account for all idiosyncrasies in all industries while at the same time spanning cultural differences. Consequently, the research question has to be narrowed down to a single industry (in the case of this study, the financial services sector) as well as a certain region (in the case of this study, German-speaking countries) and is formulated as follows: How can a financial services industry-specific knowledge management model be developed for German-speaking firms and aligned with the overall strategic management that accounts for ever-present market and/or regulatory – and hence strategic – changes? Accordingly, this study develops a strategic knowledge management model to fit into the rather turbulent and definitely unstable financial services industry, including necessary organisational adoptions. The model is based both on solid theoretical and practical grounds – academically, it draws from well recognised scholars in the fields of strategic management (including resource-based and knowledge-based views), knowledge management (including organisational learning) and academic literature on communities. In addition to theory, it draws from the empirical findings made by a triangulation of qualitative methods including (i) qualitative questionnaires answered by ten firms including, in some cases, up to three iterations, semi-structured in-depth interviews conducted with nine firms and participatory observation at one site. The empirical part of this study reveals that scientific-oriented definitions of knowledge and scientific-oriented knowledge management models are not applied within German-speaking financial services companies. In addition, there is barely a recognisable link between knowledge management and strategic management. On the other hand, it shows that practitioners apply knowledge management methods much more often than they realise, which is especially true when using various forms of communities to support reaching a firm?s targets. In essence, the result of this study allows financial services firms to make use of a highly flexible and thus sustainable knowledge management model accounting for various idiosyncrasies found within the industry for each respective single firm. In addition, the model tightly and seamlessly links overall knowledge management efforts with strategic management.

Download or read book Knowledge Management Systems for Business written by Robert J. Thierauf and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1999-07-30 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now, business systems have focused on selected data within a certain context to produce information. A better approach, says Thierauf, is to take information accompanied by experience over time to generate knowledge. He demonstrates that knowledge management systems can be used as a source of power to outmaneuver business competitors. Knowledge discovery tools enable decision makers to extract the patterns, trends, and correlations that underlie the inner (and inter-) workings of a company. His book is the first comprehensive text to define this important new direction in computer technology and will be essential reading for MIS practitioners, systems analysts, and academics researching and teaching the theory and applications of knowledge management systems. Thierauf centers on leveraging a company's knowledge capital. Indeed, knowledge is power—the power to improve customer satisfaction, marketing and production methods, financial operations, and other functions. Thierauf shows how knowledge, when developed and renewed, can be applied to a company's functional areas and provide an important competitive advantage. By utilizing some form of internal and external computer networks and providing some type of knowledge discovery software that encapsulates usable knowledge, Thierauf shows how to create an infrastructure to capture knowledge, store it, improve it, clarify it, and disseminate it throughout the organization, then how to use it regularly. His book demonstrates clearly how knowledge management systems focus on making knowledge available to company employees in the right format, at the right time, and in the right place. The result is inevitably a higher order of intelligence in decision making, more so now than could ever have been possible in even the most recent past.

Download or read book Knowledge Based Systems for Multiple Environments written by Ladislav J. Kohout and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1992, this volume identifies the problems facing the designer of multi-environmental knowledge-based systems, and explains the principles that must be followed in order to obtain successful results. Systems called upon to function in a variety of widely differing cultural and natural environments can only do so satisfactorily if from the very beginning they have been designed with this versatility in mind. For the first time, the know-how for this often formidable design task has been gathered together and presented here. This study was written to an overall plan, with chapters commissioned from a group of research of quite diversified back-grounds who had deeply explored their subjects. Each topic was thus covered in close connection with the others, so as to form a coherent whole. While primarily aimed at workers in Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems, as well as designers of other kinds of sophisticated software, the contents of the book are of wider validity, just as the multi-environmental demands are of wider incidence. Manufactures, exporters and importers of computing technology with a large knowledge component will also find their concerns addressed.
