Knowledge-based System Design Based on Generic Method Conception

Henrihs Gorskis, Arkady Borisov

Abstract


This paper proposes an approach to generic object concepts for problem solving method ontologies and knowledge- based systems. By using placeholders, whose main purpose is to define characteristics of the objects upon which the method acts without specifying a domain, method ontologies can become more reusable. The re-usability stems from the ability to merge such method ontologies more easily with fitting domains. The generic object concepts in the method are proposed to be used as a bridge to the domain ontology. The paper provides a comparison to similar methods in related studies.

Keywords:
Domain ontology; intelligent system; problem solving method; reusable components
