....to build and easier to maintain. 1. The Search for Reusable Abstractions The field of artificial intelligence (AI) has contributed a great deal to conventional software engineering. For example, work in the 1970s that was couched in the framework of knowledge acquisition for expert systems [1] has led to interviewing strategies, methods for systems analysis, and modeling techniques that have been influential more broadly in the area of requirements engineering. The conceptual modeling techniques pioneered by early workers in AI have become standard elements of industrial software ....

....malignant tissues are summarized in Table 3.1. 4. Knowledge Elicitation and Refinement Knowledge acquisition (KA) is a process that involves eliciting, analysing, interpreting, formalizing and transforming into a suitable machine representation, knowledge that experts use for solving problems [33]. During the knowledge acquisition process, a set of statements about metabolic features of breast cancer was defined. The extracted statements were grouped into different categories based on the metabolic feature they reflected. Similar statements were merged into a single statement. The ....

....step is the development of the target system. At the moment, this system is being implemented using the insights we gained by our prototype. 2 Knowledge Acquisition The project began with a knowledge acquisition phase. We used interviewing techniques in their structured and unstructured form [4]. Our expert is a colleague of the Institute for Sanitary Engineering at our university. In common sessions the expert described the problem domain. The knowledge engineer interrupted the monologue of the expert to make comments and to point to missing details at the end of each session. The ....

....for two reasons. The first reason is its inevitability. During the development of a knowledge system one of the main problems is the knowledge acquisition: expert knowledge is characterised by inaccessibility and incompleteness. The problem is known as the knowledge acquisition bottleneck Kidd, 1987; Breuker and Wielinga, 1987) Knowledge from domain experts often only is available in compiled form. In the legal domain, for instance, Bench Capon remarks with respect to expert knowledge: It is the marshalling of this diverse material into a form where he [PRSV: the legal expert] can apply it ....
