The Refinement of Curricula Content Based on a Problem Domain Model

The modified Value Chain Model (VCM) of curricula related to a particular problem is formally described and it's process measures are proposed. The major components of the domain knowledge (modified VCM) are management functions and information flows related by a control loop to the processes in the problem domain. The formal description of the information transformations of a particular management function is defined as an Elementary Management Cycle (EMC). The modified VCM-based framework for the refinement of curricula content is developed and discussed.
