Abstract

This report introduces the methodology of knowledge representation by using Context Maps . In particular, the Due Diligence Strategy can be represented with the Context Maps based on concepts and relationships. The "Entrepreneur America" and "Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) Roadmap" are different species of the Due Diligence processes. The application of modeling these processes by Context Maps was demonstrated in the report. In addition, the "Rational Unified Process (RUP) Management" is a set of software engineering processes that provide engineers with guidance to streamline their team's development activities. Applying the "RUP Management" schemata to Contexts Maps of Due Diligence Strategy was also described in this report. The main purpose of this work is to analyze the advantages of modeling the Due Diligence processes by using Contexts Maps . The final objective is to develop Context Maps methodology for representation the knowledge based information.
