Abstract

Problem Solving Methods are valuable structures that facilitate reusing components for building Knowledge-Based Systems. We explain the vocabulary used to describe a synthetic PSM which was successfully applied to four different domains. The main classes of the ontology will be described, in particular those required to map the concepts of the domain with the PSM method.
