Many systems help us increase our knowledge of the world in one way or another. Systems engineering needs a better way to understand how systems help or hinder the creation of knowledge. The Knowledge Pyramid was developed as a reference model to facilitate systems analysis with respect to data, information and knowledge. This paper describes the elements of the Pyramid and how they relate to system architecture.
