Description

Knowledge engineering has always been portrayed as remote from most other disciplines relating to information systems. This book recognizes that knowledge engineering is in fact an important part of the information systems regime and demonstrates the practical application of this methodology to industry. The text includes various examples, exercises and case studies, allowing the reader to fully understand knowledge engineering and all its complexities. A number of techniques presently used within the context of software and information engineering are presented as applicable to knowledge engineering. The book also demonstrates how an expert system can access data from large corporate databases.
