ABSTRACT

A major thrust of artificial intelligence research is how to build knowledge of the application domain into computer systems. We investigate how the user himself can introduce his own expert knowledge into his data base system through rapid language extension so that it may then respond intelligently to his curt queries and commands.Illustrations of rapid language extension using the REL System are presented and discussed.
