Designing a HyperCard Database for the Natural Language Sourcebook

Abstract

The UCLA Center for Technology Assessment of the Center of the Study of Evaluation has an existing contract with the Defense Advance Research Projects Agency to study human benchmarking methodology for the evaluation of artificial intelligence systems. Systems of interest include vision, natural language, experts systems shells and expert systems. This final report documents the implementation of the Natural Language Sourcebook hardcopy document to a user friendly, interactive HyperCard database stack. The two primary tasks of the project were: 1-Specifying system components and 2-Designing and developing the Sourcebook database. The tasks of the project are described in the following sections: Section 1, Specification of System Components, provides a description of the content in the Natural Language Sourcebook which is included in the electronic version of the Sourcebook database. Section 2, Design and Development of the Sourcebook Database, describes the overall design and documentation of the development of the HyperCard stack for the Sourcebook database and the accompanying User's Manual.
