Knowledge engineering and data mining are the two biggest pillars of modern intelligent systems [...]

Engineering design is a knowledge-intensive process, including conceptual design, detailed design, engineering analysis, assembly design, process design, and performance evaluation. Each of these tasks involves various aspects of knowledge and experience. They are the most valuable sources for capitalizing enterprise knowledge and know-how on building enterprise memory, which may become part of...

The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs)  has become a competitive strategy that allows organizations to position themselves within their market of action. In addition, the evolution, advancement use ICTs any type organization have created new domains interest. this context, Knowledge-intensive software engineering applications are becoming crucial in suppo...

Building intelligent systems is a complex task. In many knowledge engineering projects the knowledge acquisition activities can significantly benefit from a tool, that is tailored to the specific project setting with respect to domain, contributors, and goals. Specifying and building a new tool from scratch is ambitious, tedious, and delaying. In this paper we introduce a wiki-based meta-engine...

The paper deals with some common problems present in knowledge and software engineering, related to the practical design, analysis, and implementation of systems. With different design methods used at subsequent design stages, the socalled semantic gaps appear, due to important differences in semantics between design methods. The paper discusses the semantic gaps present in software and knowled...
