Abstract:

In the FGCS Follow-on project, the second research department has developed knowledge processing software for knowledge representation and applications.

For knowledge representation software, we have improved the functions of a knowledge representation language, Quixote, and developed a heterogeneous distributed cooperative system, Helios. Helios solves real complex problems by communicating with several problem solvers.

As application software, we developed new function modules for genetic information processing and legal reasoning. The genetic information processing group succeeded in creating a useful tool for sequence analysis, and has worked on constructing a biological knowledge base and on structure analysis.

The legal reasoning group developed a software tool which consists of an argumentation function and a debate function. Overviews of this research are introduced briefly.
