KNOWMATICS - THE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF KNOWLEDGE FOR A NEW REVOLUTION IN EDUCATION
1. PROF. (DR.) RAJU M. MATHEW &
RANJIT RAJU MATHEW
This is based on the paper ‘Knowmatics – A New Revolution in
Higher Education’ Journal of the World Universities Forum
4, 1, 2011:1-11 and its video presentation has been posted in
YouTube.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
2. BIRTH OF KNOWMATICS
Even though Knowmatics was born in 2005, it
was the result of more than thirty years of
intensive study and research on the structure
of knowledge found in the scriptures of major
religions and hundreds of domains of modern
knowledge, besides the growth of knowledge
consumption and production in different ages
and theoretical foundations of Information
Technology. The present work explores the
revolutionary impacts of Knowmatics on
Universities and the Professions of Teaching
and Research .

3. Higher Education - A Tradition
built upon 2500 Years ago
Starting from The Nalanda or Taxila
University in India or Aristotle's Academy in
Athens, Higher Education has a long
standing tradition and structure for more
than 2500 years. The Professors and
students of even the high tech universities
in the twenty first century have been
following the same old learning
methods, techniques and strategies
employed by the professors and students
of the ancient universities without much
changes.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
4. Advocating without
Practicing
Universities all over the world are the
champions of innovations and adaptations
besides developing efficient
systems, methods and techniques. They
advocate modern management techniques
to run big governments and multinational
corporations, but they are very much
reluctant to apply even the simplest
principles and introducing innovation in
their teaching or research or management.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
5. Getting Obsolete and
Irrelevant
Universities all over the world are getting
irrelevant and unable to deliver the required
skills, expertise and knowledge for the
emerging knowledge societies, especially the
young. The present global economic crisis
exposed the failure or vulnerability of
universities, including that of the Business
Schools and Noble Laureates in Economics
to avoid the crisis or to solve the problems
due to their own wrong teaching, research or
analysis and advices, giving too much
emphasis to fragmented data or information in
stead of integrated wisdom and knowledge.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
6. Cost –Ineffectiveness &
Sub-optimality
If we compare the total skills, expertise and
knowledge delivered by universities or
schools and developed by their highest
degree holders on the one hand and the total
time, efforts and money spent by the students
and the society as a whole on the other, it can
be seen that all universities or schools are
running sub-optimally and cost-ineffectively.
There is no justification to spend so much
time, money and efforts on the parts of the
students to get such a small quantum of skill,
expertise and knowledge that too are
irrelevant or ineffective.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
7. INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY AND HIGHER
EDUCATION
Information Technology was originally
designed for data processing and developed
on the basis of algorithms built upon linear
and static data structure. Hence, IT has an
inherent weakness of putting into higher
education , founded on knowledge
processing and handling and skill acquisition .
The very structure of knowledge is non-linear
and dynamic. IT is incompatible in dealing
with skill, knowledge and higher
education, other than some routine
administrative matters, student evaluation and
retrieval of practically unusable truck load of
information.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
8. Education is Knowledge-Centric
and IT is Data-Centric
Information Technology is founded on Data or
Information. Data has no meaning or
relevance without knowledge. Education is
built upon Knowledge – Consumption and
Production of Knowledge at different levels.
Concepts are the building blocs of knowledge.
Teaching, Learning, Skill Acquisition and
Developing Expertise are the functions of
consumption and production of Knowledge.
Sound strategies in Education can be
formulated only on the basis of sound theories
of consumption and production of Knowledge.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
9. THEORIES OF KNOWLEDGE
CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTION
After conducting a series of studies on the knowledge
consumption and production pattern of
students, professors, scientists, top level decision
makers and also the common people, Mathew in 1984
formulated the „Theory of Knowledge Consumption--
Production Correlation‟ and „Stage Theory of
Knowledge Consumption –Production Growth‟. The
USSR Academy of Science published them in 1985 for
the FID/RI Committee in the work „Theoretical
Problems of Informatics. A series of studies, including
doctoral works, have been carried out on the basis of
these theories on different parts of the world in skill
acquisition and scientific productivity.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
10. THEORY OF KNOWLEWDGE
CONSUMPTION- PRODUCTION
CORREALTION
Theory of knowledge consumption-
production correlation states that there
exists a direct correlation between high
level (quality) knowledge consumption
and knowledge production, such
correlation may or may not exits
between low level knowledge
consumption even at high quantity and
knowledge production.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
11. STAGE THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE
CONSUMPTION-PRODUCTION GROWTH
Both in the case of individuals and
societies, growth of knowledge
consumption –production takes places
in well defined, low to high levels of
stages. By the application of
appropriate technology and
methods, especially Knowmatics , a
quantum leap can be made from lower
stages to highest level.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
12. COMMON STRUCTURE FOR
ALL DOMAINS OF
KNOWLEDGE studiers on the structure
On the basis of his further
and representation of knowledge in the Bible, the
Koran, The Vedas And Upanishads, the Ayurveda
and Modern Science, including Social Sciences and
also the Theoretical Foundation of Information
Technology, Mathew establishes that there exists a
common structure and method for all domains of
knowledge and concepts are the basic building
blocks of knowledge domains. Knowledge
processing technology can be built up on the basis of
developing algorithms based on knowledge structure
for which he proposed Knowmatics in 2005.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
13. DEFINING KNOWMATICS
“Knowmatics”, according to Mathew, “is
the mathematical and engineering study
of the structure, representation and
communication of knowledge for
developing knowledge processing and
handling technologies and industries
and thereby augmenting knowledge
consumption and production into several
fold, from lover to higher levels”.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
14. APPLICATION OF
KNOIWMATICS IN HIGHER
EDUCATION a science or mathematics of
Knowmatics is not only
knowledge but also a revolutionary approach
towards knowledge, learning, teaching, research
and putting knowledge into practices. High quality
Knowledge consumption, production and application
are the advanced level of human activities and
universities are charged with augmenting these
intellectual processes and attaining a quantum leap
from low levels knowledge consumption to higher
levels of knowledge consumption, production and
applications, by developing appropriate methods and
technologies.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
15. KNOWLEDGE BANKS AND
KNOWLEDGE
CORPORATIONs
Knowmatics facilitates the emergence of live
knowledge banks based on human experts so as to
bring out value added and customized knowledge
products, packages and solutions at
basic, advanced and professional levels globally to
anybody crossing the barrios of language, culture
and educational qualifications. The concept of
literacy will be changed as the ability to
identify, access and apply knowledge for problem
solution to a specific context. Knowledge
corporations will emerge to meet the entire
knowledge needs of humanity as a very big
enterprises, surpassing the entire IT sector so that a
ten fold knowledge consumption-production can be
attained at one hundredth time and efforts and costs.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
16. FATE OF UNIVERSITIES AND
THE NEW DEVELOPMENT PARADIGM
With the emergence of knowledge banks and
knowledge corporations, thousands of the existing
universities will be forced to close down or to become
their knowledge service centers. As a strategy for
survival, some of the resourceful and adaptive
universities are to evolve themselves as mega
knowledge corporations to offer cost effective
knowledge packages, products and solutions to
anybody , crossing the conventional barriers put forth
by universities, for easy or direct access of knowledge
to anybody. The very profession of university teaching
will be redefined and it will affect the entire education
process. When knowledge is made accessible to the
millions, it empowers them and they bring new
development paradigm for the entire humanity.
Knowmatics - A New Revolution in Higher
Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
17. RESEARCH &
DEVELOPMENT IN
KNOWMATICS offers wonder
Knowmatics, as a science and technology,
potentialities of design and development of suitable
systems, services and technologies and development and
marketing of innovative knowledge products and services
for all human endeavors that are based on or related to
knowledge –expertise, learning, skill
acquisition, innovation, scientific research, professional
practices , planning and decision making, formulation of
policies, theories and strategies and etc. There is a need
for global initiatives in conducting R & D efforts in
Knowmatics and Knowledge Processing Technology for
collecting, organizing and repacking all knowledge in
diverse forms, available in any part of the world, including
modern science and technology, spirituality and
religion, traditional wisdom and indigenous knowledge
besides even the unrecorded tribal myths, beliefs and
sayings.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
18. STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE
OF KNOWMATICS
By taking into account the strategic
importance of Knowmatics in building
Knowledge Economies, attaining efficiency
and competitiveness, developing human
capital, skill and expertise, individual
countries and global agencies must be
ready to invest substantial amount for
developing Knowmatics and Knowledge
Systems, products and Services so as to
ensure optimal access to knowledge for all
men on earth.

Education. By Prof.(Dr.) Raju M. Mathew
19. KNOWMATICS AND THE
FUTURE OF THE U.A.E.
UAE can be considered as one of the
vibrant economies giving very great
emphasis for developing as a
Knowledge Society or Economy. A
Knowledge Economy is characterized by
the Consumption and Production of
higher levels of knowledge.
