An English-Like Language For Qualitative Scientific Knowledge
Proceedings of the Fourth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. A.I. Software. Pages 593-599.
Abstract
KAL (Knowledge Acquisition Languaqe) is a laguage intended not for programming out for the expression of qualitative sc1entific knowledge. It is designed to accommodate both the semantic constructs most frequently found in scientific text (at present, excluding the description of change) and the knowledge storage and retrieval mechanisms of languages like CONNIVER, in which it may be implemented. Emphasis is placed on using "real" text, and in interacting with scientists {particularly biologists) to discover their particular needs. Though KAL is English-like, most natural larquaqes could be substituted with no difficulty.
