Description

This book explores the theme Linguistic Instruments in Knowledge Engineering from the perspective of workers from the fields of linguistics and computer science. The application direction is presented "the other way around:" - computational linguistics, and computational tools and theories are used for grammar writing, parsing, logical semantics, etc. The first five papers explore primarily linguistic aspects, while the next five take a look at the aspects related to information systems. Topic areas include: information sciences and knowledge engineering, information systems, conceptual model specification, logic and natural language semantics. This combination of linguistics with the representation of knowledge in the form of information systems will be of interest to those working in knowledge engineering, information-system development and CASE tools.
