ABSTRACT
Knowledge engineers build knowledge-based systems in order to solve problems in a particular field of human endeavor. Knowledge-based systems use ontologies to organize concepts and relationships between concepts. This paper presents two undergraduate research projects in developing two different types of ontologies.

Ontological Versus Knowledge Engineering
The author first discusses the difference between a knowledge base (KB) and a database (DB), which seems to hinge on the 'gray box' verses 'black box' nature of the entries. He then discusses the need for a huge KB to break today's bottleneck in ...
The Knowledge Acquisition and Representation Language, KARL
The Knowledge Acquisition and Representation Language (KARL) combines a description of a knowledge-based system at the conceptual level (a so-called model of expertise) with a description at a formal and executable level. Thus, KARL allows the precise ...
