Abstract: Knowledge defines the action of an entity in a particular work setting. Developing a model for knowledge creation helps to gain a competitive advantage in the work scenario of any organization. There is also a requirement in the non-profit sector like education to optimize the functioning by deducing knowledge from the massive amount of data that gets accumulated. The paper illustrates the implementation of Genetic Algorithm based knowledge creation technique which could be applied in higher education scenario quantifying knowledge on various parameters and eventually helping in making guided decisions in the environment.
