Paper Abstract:
|
Many systems in real life consist of agents who are intelligent, but who do not have the maxims or the regulative propositions of their behavior. These agents know by practice how to operate in some particular field, but they cannot state the rules that govern their behavior. As demonstrated by work in expert systems and in particular in the area of knowledge engineering, there is a great interest in this type of systems with the primary task being the extraction, articulation, and computerization of the experts knowledge. We are proposing a methodology to serve as a tool in this task. This methodology is based on Milners observation equivalence and allows a system designer or analyst to abstract away unnecessary information about an agents behavior and to specify the rules that govern its behavior. |
