  • Biomedical knowledge acquisition : three systems reviewed

    Creator:
    Springsteel, Frederick Neil
    Abstract:
    Recent advances in diagnostic expert systems have been limited by the crucial Knowledge Acquisition Problem: to bring expert heuristics into logical, condi­tional rule forms useful for computer aided diagnosis. Some automatic systems with potential biomedical relevance that do acquire knowledge are reviewed here, and analyzed from the standpoint of possible...

  • Mobile Interactive Data Acquisition System (MIDAS)

    Creator:
    Anantha, Vikram
    Abstract:
    MIDAS is an application framework for remote data acquisition and visualization that allows dynamic reconfiguration of its constituent components. There are three types of reconfiguration, namely, component replacement, component interposition and component deletion. A two-phase protocol to maintain the consistency of the system during reconfiguration is described. MIDAS has a...

  • Learning at the knowledge level

    Creator:
    Dietterich, Thomas G.
    Abstract:
    When Newell introduced the concept of the knowledge level as a useful level of description for computer systems, he focused on the representation of knowl­edge. This paper applies the knowledge level notion to the problem of knowl­edge acquisition. Two interesting issues arise. First, some existing machine learning programs appear to...

  • Computer science and computer engineering research equipment

    Creator:
    Tonge, Fred M.
    Abstract:
    This grant supported acquisition of a minicomputer system for departmental research. The equipment selected is a DEC VAX-11/750 system, installed in remodeled space in the Computer Science (formerly Farm Crops) Building. Grant funds for equipment acquisition were supplemented by support from the Tektronix Foundation. After completion of the physical facilities...

  • Expert systems for exploratory data analysis : towards automated research

    Creator:
    Springsteel, Fred Neil
    Abstract:
    Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is a lesser known field which has outgrown the bounds of statistics. It differs from ordinary, or “confirmatory”, data analysis. Originated by John Tukey, EDA aspires toward an open-ended meta-goal: to discover “all interesting” [nontrivial, normal form, valid] hypo­theses about a domain that is represented by...

  • Software configuration management (SCM) support process capability maturity model

    Creator:
    Ghotra, Baljinder Singh
    Abstract:
    Software Configuration Management (SCM) is a concept of trying to group the changing artifacts of software development to try to manage the complexity of modern day software. This paper provides a roadmap for improving the SCM support process based on a meta-model. I developed a model that defines key practice...

  • Reverse engineering code listings into "books" to improve maintainability

    Creator:
    Oman, Paul W. and Cook, Curtis R.
    Abstract:
    We have identified a "book paradigm" for source code formatting which improves program comprehension and assists in maintenance work. The book paradigm can be implemented by reverse engineering code listings into a "book" with preface, tab1es of contents, chapters, sections, indices and pagination. This reverse engineering effectively reorganizes source code...
