Abstract: A large number of problems to be solved with the help of computer systems are ill-structured. Their solution requires incremental design processes, because complete and stable specifications are net available.For tasks of this sort, life cycle models are inadequate. Our design methodology is based on a rapid prototyping approach which supports the coevolution of specification and implementation. Communication between customers, designers and implementors and communication between the humans and the knowledge base in which the emerging product is embedded are of crucial importance. Our work is centered around knowledge-based systems which enhance and support the communication needs in connection with software systems.Program documentation systems are used as an example to illustrate the relevance of knowledge-based human-computer communication in software engineering.

Construction kits and design environments: steps toward human problem-domain communication
Gerhard Fischer,Andreas C. Lemke +1 more
TL;DR: The goal is to build cooperative computer systems to augment human intelligence by replacing human-computer communication with human problem-domain communication, which allows users to concentrate on the problems of their domain and to ignore the fact that they are using a computer tool.

Human-computer interaction software: lessons learned, challenges ahead
TL;DR: The author presents a knowledge-based approach to enhance and support communication between humans and computers that has an explicit communication channel between the human and the hardware and an implicit communication channelBetween the human's knowledge base and the computer's stored knowledge.

A framework for representing knowledge
Marvin Minsky
- 01 Jun 1974
TL;DR: The enormous problem of the volume of background common sense knowledge required to understand even very simple natural language texts is discussed and it is suggested that networks of frames are a reasonable approach to represent such knowledge.
