The Twofold Integration of CBR in Decision Support Systems
Paolo Avesani, Anna Perini, Francesco Ricci⋆ · 1998
This short paper presents our experience in facing different levels of integration of CBR techniques with other system components and techniques inside decision support systems for controlling environmental emergencies. The integration requirement at the level of system components is distinguished from the integration requirements at the level of specific steps in the CBR problem solving cycle. We describe how these aspects have been dealt inside two systems, CHARADE and CARICA, and point out the influence of this work on our current activity. keywords: interactive planning, constraint satisfaction problem, feature weighting. Introduction This paper presents our experience in using CBR techniques to develop advanced functions in decision support systems (DSSs) for complex domains, such as DSSs for controlling environmental emergencies. In real application domains CBR can be effectively exploited when it is integrated both with other techniques and with other software system componen...
