A knowledge-based design environment for graphical network editors

A graphical editor design environment that incorporates and applies knowledge about application domains has been developed. The goal is to move a design environment closer toward its application. As an example of this generation of design support systems, a design environment for graphical editors in the domain of object-oriented inheritance networks is presented. In addition to the general knowledge about graphs, the system knows about inheritance mechanisms in object-oriented systems, and it knows about the nodes being classes and the links representing the superclass relation. This knowledge is used to provide guidance, critiques, and constraints.<<ETX>>

Eine framebasierte Wissensrepräsentation mit Hilfe objektorientierter Programmierung

Seit der zusammenfassenden Darstellung Minskys (14) ist eine Vielzahl von Systemen entstanden, die Wissen in Form von Frames reprasentieren. Dabei ist oft unklar, welche Rolle Vererbung, Defaultverhalten und andere mit Frames verbundene Prozesse spielen.
