Abstract

The service industry makes up an increasingly large proportion of modern economies. Despite the importance and expansion of this sector the topic of new service development, as opposed to new product development, has been largely neglected. One of the crucial steps in new service development is the conceptualization of a service concept: a qualitative description of a future service system in terms of its objects, their attributes, and possible values for these attributes. Our knowledge framework, as described in the following paper, encompasses a five‐level taxonomy of service objects: major class, main class, minor class, attribute, and value. We further suggest several knowledge‐based processes for applying the framework to the conceptual design of a new service, drawing upon model‐based reasoning and case‐based reasoning.

This knowledge is often called design knowledge because it reflects design decisions that a KBS developer makes regarding what ontolo
