In this chapter, by considering global trends and using illustrative examples from Japan, an approach to cutting this Gordian Knot is illustrated. This focuses of a formal Knowledge Management System (KMS) and associated knowledge base that utilise state-of-the-art tools, developed in the field of Knowledge Engineering (KE) and information technology. In particular, the critical question, of whether advanced KM tools can contribute to the development, review, communication and control of the iterative evolution of safety cases will be considered.
