Application of Symbolic Processing to Command and Control: An Advanced Information Presentation System

Abstract

Last year the Advanced Information Presentation System (AIPS) had reached the point of a first-pass implementation. Some analysis and experimentation with that system and its internal representation structure revealed areas where the knowledge structure was inadequate -- either not epistemologically sound or not computationally reasonable. During this year we have conceptualized a new structure for the system and have begun the task of implementing our next generation AIPS system. An effort has been made to modularize the system's knowledge structure. This has led to a totally new declarative architecture for the system. This architecture promises to provide a system whose capabilities are more easily extended into the realm of 'intelligent' behavior. This project has been active in helping to evolve the KL-ONE knowledge representation language. Some of the tools which have been developed this year for implementing in KL-ONE, especially the CKLONE network building operators are described.
