Abstract

DIKW hierarchy is the model used for discussion of data, information, knowledge, wisdom and their interrelationships. However, definitions of data, information, and knowledge are entrapped in a logical fallacy known as circular definition. There are some agreements in the definitions without the fallacy. The missing 'Intelligence' in DIKW plays a major role between knowledge and wisdom. This gives rise to a revised DIKW model here named DIKIW.
