In recent years, several researchers have studied the suitability of CBR to cope with dynamic or continuous or temporal domains. In these domains, the current state depends on the past temporal states. This feature really makes difficult to cope with these domains. This means that classical individual case retrieval is not very accurate, as the dynamic domain is structured in a temporally relat...

This paper describes the development of the generic collaboration support architecture CAKE incorporating case-based reasoning (CBR). CAKE provides unified access to knowledge available within an organization, and CBR technology is used throughout the system to distribute this knowledge to agents as required. Adaptive workflows and collaboration patterns selected by a CBR process are introduced...

This paper presents a novel approach to compositional adaptation of workflows, thus addressing the adaptation step in processoriented case-based reasoning. Unlike previous approaches to adaptation, the proposed approach does not require additional adaptation knowledge. Instead, the available case base of workflows is analyzed and each case is decomposed into meaningful subcomponents, called wor...

Academic capacity planning is a knowledge-intensive process that has to be based upon predicted course demand. Planners have to take into account students' current course achievements, prospective future course selections, time constraints as well as a wide range of different rules for graduation. The research project proposes a refined case-based reasoning (CBR) approach for anticipating stude...

ICCBR 2007, the Seventh International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning, was held in the joyful city of Belfast, Northern Ireland, UK. Our host in Belfast was David Patterson from the University of Ulster. The 2007 program attempted to open the field’s frontiers by inviting speakers from neighboring areas and insiders who could expand the vision of the attending case-based reasoning (CBR) rese...

The design task is especially appropriate for applying, integrating, exploring and pushing the boundaries of case-based reasoning. In this paper, we briefly review the challenges that design poses for case-based reasoning and survey research on case-based design ranging from early explorations to more recent work on innovative design. We also summarize the theoretical contributions this researc...

Case-based reasoning (CBR) models the process of reasoning from specific experiences acquired by an agent, and contained in the agent’s case-base. When multiple agents acquire cases, opportunities arise for sharing their case-bases, with accompanying issues for how to apply others’ experiences effectively. This paper examines issues for multi-casebase reasoning (MCBR), the reasoning process nee...
