Abstract

The paper presents an industrial application of an object based knowledge representation system relying on description logics. The knowledge representation language is used as core component of a complex information system conceived to support data exploration. The system is called IDA and it has been developed within the Esprit project AIMS. In this paper we describe the motivations, the architecture of IDA and the methodological guidelines for building an exploration-oriented application in the IDA framework.
