Making role-limiting shells more flexible

PHASuite: An Automated HAZOP Analysis Tool for Chemical Processes

“…The basic model for knowledge acquisition has been that the knowledge engineer mediates between the expert and knowledge base, eliciting knowledge from the domain expert, encoding it for knowledge base, and refining it in collaboration with the expert to achieve acceptable performance. Based on the involvement of knowledge engineer in the knowledge acquisition process, the major approaches for knowledge acquisition can be divided into two categories: the modelbased incremental knowledge engineering approach (MIKE) (Angele et al, 1993), and the configurable rolelimiting method approach (CRLM) (Poeck and Gappa, 1993). MIKE is strongly influenced by work in the domain of software engineering and information system design.…”

Some principles for libraries of task decomposition methods

“…The proposals were well received by other researchers in the field of model-driven knowledge acquisition, and was adopted in several approaches (Puerta, Egar, Tu & Musen, 1992;van Heijst, Terpstra, Wielinga & Shadbolt, 1992;Poeck & Gappa, 1993;Breuker & Van de Velde, 1994). However, very few comprehensive libraries of task decomposition methods have been presented to date (a lot of research is still devoted of monolithic problem-solving methods), and even fewer evaluations of such libraries have been made.…”
