چکیده

For purposes of reacting to an increasingly competitive business environment, many companies emphasize the importance of knowledge management (KM), thus, it is a worthwhile project to explore and learn about KM features of high-performance companies. Discovering and describing the critical KM features of high-performance companies is a qualitative analysis problem. To handle this kind of problem, the rough set approach is suitable because it embodies data-mining techniques which enable us to discover knowledge without rigorous statistical assumptions. This paper sets out to explore KM features of high-performance companies using the rough set approach.
