Suggestions from the Software Engineering Practice for Applying Consistency-Based Diagnosis to Configuration Knowledge Bases

Abstract

A configuration knowledge base is software that needs debugging during maintenance and can benefit from consistency-based diagnosis. The paper describes suggestions and practical experience from the introduction of this diagnosis technique in the work flow for maintaining configuration knowledge bases. Consistency-based diagnosis is suitable for detecting bugs in knowledge bases, but needs tailoring to fit in the work flow of the knowledge engineers.
