Intelligent Access to Large Knowledge Bases from Heterogeneous Devices Using Multiple Protocols
Abstract
This report documents the results of an effort with an objective to demonstrate the feasibility of integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology with web technology to bring very large data and knowledge bases to a hand-held computing device. A software architecture is provided consisting of three levels of intelligent software assistance, i.e. a personal assistant, a hardware assistant, and a structured query language (SQL) assistant. To demonstrate the software architecture a USAF Air Mobility Command operational problem domain is simulated to represent the large database from which military personnel want to gather information. A brief overview of the USAF Scientific Advisory Board's Joint Battlespace Infosphere (JBI) is presented with references of how the resultant software developed here instantiated portions of the JBI architecture. The software recognizes a user profile including their computer device and tailors the presentation of information the the user accordingly. the software architecture provides push and pull paradigms. The user may change their profile at any time and the system appropriately responds. A description and demonstration of the software are provided that show how one can access data via an http connection and through email.
