Abstract
Description
Background:
As part of the doctoral thesis "XR-KIS: An Extended Reality-based Information System for Knowledge Management in Nuclear Facilities," expert interviews were conducted for both requirements analysis and evaluation. The goal of the requirements analysis was to gain in-depth insights into the current state of Knowledge Management in the German nuclear industry. In addition, the requirements for an Extended Reality-based information system to support Knowledge Management in nuclear facilities were examined. Care was taken in selecting interview partners to cover all relevant stakeholders. This includes perspectives from the most important types of nuclear facilities (nuclear power plants, interim storage facilities, final repositories, research facilities) as well as other stakeholders, including federal authorities and engineering service providers.
Regarding the transcript "Interview with a research assistant for Knowledge Management at the Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung":
The expert’s tasks include providing historical context for the site selection process, participating in an international working group on awareness preservation and archiving, and leading the project group for offboarding discussions. He is a historian by education. The discussion focused on the challenges of knowledge preservation in the face of constant personnel changes (brain drain) and the need to capture implicit knowledge (experience-based knowledge). The expert discussed the definition of Knowledge Management and knowledge preservation, the challenges of documentation requirements, and the linking of technical and political archival material.
