KDL-advisor: a knowledge/data based system written in KDL
W. D. Potter · 2003
A novel approach is described for building intelligent information systems (or knowledge-base management systems). The approach utilizes the knowledge data language, which is a schema specification language developed for the knowledge/data model. The model, referred to as a hypersemantic data model, captures both knowledge semantics, as specified in knowledge-based systems, and data semantics, as represented by semantic data models. Hypersemantic data models facilitate the incorporation of knowledge in the form of heuristics, uncertainty, constraints and other artificial intelligence concepts, together with object-oriented concepts found in semantic data models. The unified knowledge/data modeling features and constructs of the language are used to develop a prototype knowledge base management system, the KDL-advisor.>
