Using Generalised Directive Models in Knowledge Acquisition

In this paper we describe Generalised Directive Models and their instantiation in the ACKnowledge Knowledge Engineering Workbench. We have developed a context sensitive rewrite grammar that allows us to capture a large class of inference layer models. We use the grammar to progressively refine the model of problem solving for an application. It is also used as the basis of the scheduling of KA activities and the selection of KA tools.
