| Abstract: | The combined use of Database Management Systems (DBMS) and Artificial
Intelligence-based Expert Systems (ES) is potentially very valuable for
modern business applications. The large body of facts usually required
in business information systems can be made available to an ES through
an existing commercial DBMS. Furthermore, the DBMS itself can be used
more intelligently and operated more efficiently if enhanced with ES
features. However, the implementation of a DBMS-ES cooperation is very
difficult. We explore practical benefits of the cooperative use of DBMS
and ES, as well as the research challenges it presents. Strategies for
providing data from a DBMS to an ES are given; complementary strategies
for providing intelligence from an ES to a DBMS are also presented.
Finally, we discuss architechural issues such as degree of coupling, and
combination with quantitative methods. As an illustration, a research
effort at New York University to integrate a logic-based business ES
with a relational DBMS is described. |
