Meta-Pack

Meta-Pack is a knowledge-management toolset allowing you to construct flexible ontologies modelling any domain and populate those ontologies at a later time on the fly.

Typical uses are to capture best practice or construct structured knowledge maps, for example during 'brain storming' sessions.

Meta-Pack includes four integrated tools:

• Protocol analysis tool
• Laddering tool
• Matrix tool
• Annotation tool

The pivotal tool in Meta-Pack is the Matrix tool, which features all the functionality of the Matrix tool in PCPACK v4.

Meta-Pack includes form designing and charting. Information is stored in a database compatible with Microsoft Access or SQL. Data can be imported and exported from PCPACK v2.

Meta-Pack Knowledge Manager was developed by Epistemics with the assistance of Unilever plc.

Features

• Supports development of flexible ontologies

Requirements
