Knowledge-Base Evolution for Product and Production Planning

Knowledge-Base Evolution for Product and Production Planning

Knowledge-base evolution techniques are shown to be of critical importance for the successful application of knowledge-based systems in complex domains. By conceptualizing knowledge-base evolution as theory revision, we can take advantage of the basic findings from different research communities. Results from Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) and Explanation-Based Learning ( E B L ) provide a s...

Planning and Managing Product Line Evolution

This paper addresses the management and evolution of products that comprise a configuration of reusable components. Software product lines provide an example, as their development requires the cooperation of multiple product teams that utilize common domain components. The different perspectives of the product and component teams in such environments are reviewed and contrasted, since the conce...

Concepts for a Product Line Knowledge Base & Variability

This paper presents the basic ideas of constructing a product line content & knowledge base on top of arbitrary configuration management system. Its need stems from the fact that evolving product lines arise a number of significant challenges, which can only be mastered with sound information base. The complexity of a product line engineering and its sheer number of additional artifacts and met...
