Scientific Publication on Data Governance, Information Governance & DIKW
In May we published our scientific article on Data Governance and Information Governance on Crete, the ancient origin of Western knowledge and wisdom. Based on literature research we formulate language and give definitions for data, information, data governance and information governance.
