Abstract

One of the most important phases in the methodology for developing intelligent systems is the validation phase. To be considered objective and representative, validation results need to be previously analysed by a group of experts from within the field. The SHIVA tool facilitates the use of statistical methods which permit the collective analysis of the interpretations of a group of experts. This study shows how SHIVA has been reengineered applying object-oriented programming and design patterns that make the tool more flexible and extendable to future modifications.
