  • Information system with knowledge base and data base
    Patent number: 5418943
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for integrating a knowledge base management system with a data base system. The knowledge base management system employs compositional descriptions which describe information in terms of concepts. A translation component of the apparatus translates compositional descriptions into data base queries, so that information matching a compositional description may be retrieved from the data base. The translation component further permits display of the retrieved data in terms of the compositional description. The returned information can be automatically integrated into the knowledge base, either item by item or on the basis of the compositional description which was used to return the information.
