1. A method for identifying knowledge, comprising the steps of:
- a. inputting one or more terms to be explored for additional knowledge;
b. searching one or more sources of information to identify resources containing information about or information associated with said terms;
c. decomposing resources identified during searching into nodes;
d. storing nodes in a node pool; and
e. from the node pool, construct correlations of nodes representing knowledge.

Abstract
Techniques for identifying knowledge use an graphical user interface for inputting one or more terms to be explored for additional knowledge. Then a search is conducted across one or more sources of information to identify resources containing information about or information associated with said terms. The resources are decomposed into elemental units of information and stored in a data structures called nodes. A group of nodes are stored in a node pool and, from the node pool, correlations of nodes are constructed that represent knowledge.
