Information About

The interplay of artificial intelligence and software engineering has been an interesting and an active area in research institutions and industry. This book covers the state of the art in the use of knowledge-based approach for software specification, design, implementation, testing and debugging. It starts with an introduction to various software engineering paradigms and knowledge-based software systems, and continues with the discussion of using hybrid knowledge representation as a basis to specify software requirements, to facilitate specification analysis and transformation of real-time distributed software systems. A formal requirements specification language using non-monotonic logic, temporal logic, frames and production systems for new software engineering paradigms (such as rapid prototyping, operational specification, and transformational implementation) is also discussed in detail. Examples from switching and other applications are used to illustrate the requirements language. Finally, the development, specification and verification of knowledge-based systems are investigated
