The implementation of knowledge base is done through the three models. The first model provides implementation in an academic institution. The second approach provides implementation in NREN. The third model referred as hybrid provides implementation of Knowledge base in both academic institutions and NREN. It is expected that this research will enhance the performance of existing NREN.
