Intelligent information retrieval with proto-Gnosis
Winfried Boeing · ACM SIGBIO Newsletter · 1987
This paper describes first experiences with the language proto-GNOSIS, a hybrid of MUMPS and PROLOG. The objective of the GNOSIS project is to create a GNOSIS shell, specified as a superset of X/OPEN capabilities. The shell will also be used at the University of Cologne to develop an intelligent information retrieval (IIR) system. This paper outlines an approach for IIR and illustrates the problem. Some mechanisms for an IIR system are discussed briefly. Then some examples from the GNOSIS language extensions are given.
