Using the Xtt Approach

چکیده
Practical development of the intelligent business applications for the Semantic Web requires advanced methods and tools for knowledge processing and representation. XML-based languages allow for knowledge specification, however they do not support inference which is the core activity. In the paper it is proposed to apply a new knowledge representation for expert systems, the eXtended Tabular Trees (XTT) for the design, analysis, verification and processing of knowledge for Web applications. The technology integrates with RuleML, a language for specification of rules and assures portability and quality of the rule-base.

Business Rules Design and Refinement Using the XTT Approach
This paper discusses practical development of business rules (BR) systems. The main conceptual foundations of BR are discussed, and selected tools for BR design and implementation are described. An application of a rule-based systems design tool (Mirella Designer) for BR design is proposed. Business rules visual representation using XTT in Mirella Designer is both transparent and compact. The u...
متن کاملThe HeKatE methodology. Hybrid engineering of intelligent systems
This paper describes a new approach, the HeKatE methodology, to the design and development of complex rule-based systems for control and decision support. The main paradigm for rule representation, namely, eXtended Tabular Trees (XTT), ensures high density and transparency of visual knowledge representation. Contrary to traditional, flat rule-based systems, the XTT approach is focused on groups...
متن کاملUML Representation Proposal for XTT Rule Design Method
In the paper practical issues concerning the use of UML as a knowledge representation method for rules are discussed. A proposal of an UML-based representation for the XTT structured representation for rules is presented. Since some deep semantical di erences between UML and rule-based representation exist, several possible UML representations are evaluated. A practical algorithm for building a...
متن کاملAn improved colorimetric assay for cell proliferation and viability utilizing the tetrazolium salt XTT.
A new tetrazolium salt XTT, sodium 3'-[1-[(phenylamino)-carbonyl]-3,4-tetrazolium]-bis(4-methoxy-6- nitro)benzene-sulfonic acid hydrate, was evaluated for use in a colorimetric assay for cell viability and proliferation by normal activated T cells and several cytokine dependent cell lines. Cleavage of XTT by dehydrogenase enzymes of metabolically active cells yields a highly colored formazan pr...
متن کاملRapid colorimetric assay for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
A colorimetric assay based on the reduction of a tetrazolium salt [2,3-bis[2-methyloxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl]-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT)] for rapidly determining the susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates to bactericidal antibiotics is described. There was excellent agreement between the tobramycin and ofloxacin MICs determined after 5 h using the XTT assay and after 18 h u...
