....exploited in any domain where it is useful to organize a large set of objects that can naturally be represented in 13 terms of features or roles. For example, it has been argued that this kind of automatic classification is a useful way of organizing a large set of rules in an expert system [ Yen et al. 1989 ] by classifying the left hand sides, the system automatically calculates a well founded specificity ordering over the rules (the generalization hierarchy) this can be used directly in conflict resolution. Another example of such a family of applications would be information retrieval, where ....
....related by some chain of roles (e.g. if there exist wines x and y such that one is twice as old as the other, then. One could consider using something like ops5 as a front end rule processing system and use classic as a back end structured working memory. An alternative explored in [ Yen et al. 1989 ] has been to expand the role of the knowledge base to manage both the space of rules and the policy of rule firing. classic does not have full negation. If an application will constantly need to refer to a concept that includes everything that is not an instance of some other concept, then the ....

....a name. By substituting these names in place of references to their sets of conditions, the sizes of rules (measured in numbers of conditions) can often be substantially reduced. This tends to make the rules easier to comprehend and debug, and can have beneficial effects on system performance. Yen89] elaborates on the benefits that result when definitions are combined with production rules. Mac88] describes how the expressive power of productions can be increased when references to defined terms are permitted. LOOM provides a method dispatching facility that takes advantage of its ability ....
