Current Developments in Knowledge Acquisition - EKAW'92: 6th European Knowledge Acquisition Workshop, Heidelberg and Kaiserslautern, Germany, May 18-22, 1992. Proceedings

Methodological knowledge acquisition and knowledge

engineering have achievedincreasing attention in recent

years due both to active research projects and to successful

practical applications. Both aspects have over the years

been reflected in the structure of the European Knowledge

Acquisition Workshops (EKAW), where a users' forum has

always been combined with a scientific workshop.

This volume contains the proceedings of EKAW-92. The papers

are organized into five thematic sectionson:

- Technology transfer

- General modelling approaches

- Knowledgeformalization and automated methods

- Elicitation and diagnosis of human knowledge

- Practice and experiences of knowledge acquisition.

A total of 65 persons from around the world served as the

program committee. Their recommendations and sometimes very

detailed comments helped both workshop organizers and

individual authors to achieve the high quality reflected in

this volume.
