Abstract

The present work deals with the Subject Treatment of Information with emphasis on Concept Maps and the Subject Analysis activity as contributions to the Organization and Knowledge Representation. The objective was to verify similarities between Concept Maps and the STI process, specifically in the Subject Analysis activity. The methodology was characterized as exploratory and descriptive study, in addition to the design of the literature research. Using a qualitative approach, data analysis was based on Becker (2007), which was used Logic - "come and go" process. The main results show that the concept maps and the Subject Analysis activity are similar as a process in relation to the thematic description of the content of the document. It was considered that both the Subject Analysis as the Concept Maps resemble because they shared similar characteristics, in all process and through their interactions. It follows that the Concept Maps can collaborate with the field of ORC, by reason of the steps of Extraction and Concepts Translation attend the Subject Analysis and also in the Concept Maps construction process.
