| Deborah L. McGuinness and Peter F. Patel-Schneider. ``Usability Issues in Description Logic Systems,'' Proceedings of the Fifteenth National Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Madison, Wisconsin, 1998. The amount of use a knowledge representation system receives depends on more than just the theoretical suitability of the system. Some critical determiners of usage have to do with issues related to the representation formalism of the system, some have to do with non-representational issues of the system itself, and some might be most appropriately labeled public relations. In this paper, we rely on industrial application experiences using a particular family of knowledge representation systems to identify and describe usability issues that were mandatory for our application successes. |
