Abstract

Many Web resources are dynamic services that provide some functionality for end users. Existing service-providing resources, however, tend to be "integral." For instance, online services for data analysis are available, but usually it is impossible to modify the underlying reasoning system, to configure it for a different domain, or to integrate different services to produce new functionalities. One solution to this problem would be a technological framework that provides sophisticated online problem-solving resources that are configurable for different applications. Toward that end, the Internet Reasoning Service is a Web-based front end that lets developers prototype knowledge-based applications quickly out of reusable problem-solving resources in distributed libraries. The ultimate aim is to make reliable problem-solving technology available to a wider audience and to provide the level of intelligent support that allows rapid generation of Web-based knowledge applications.
