Developing knowledge systems with continuous integration
Joachim Baumeister, Jochen Reutelshoefer · 2011
With the industrial success of knowledge-based systems new requirements with respect to Knowledge Engineering processes arise. Besides advanced knowledge acquisition tools, novel techniques for the quality assurance need to be established in order to maintain a safe development process. In Software Engineering, the application of continuous integration as a collection of practices has proved to be suitable for this task. In this paper, we transfer the general ideas of continuous integration from Software Engineering to Knowledge Engineering, and we demonstrate the implementation of a continuous integration tool into a state-of-the-art Knowledge Engineering workbench.
