Abstract

Scientist and engineers with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) deal with hundreds of thousands of technical standards from hundreds of technical organizations. With such a large scale of technical knowledge available, it can be difficult for the individual scientist or engineer to know they are examining the most current and relevant information and what related knowledge is available. A mechanism is needed to assist in answering the following type of questions:
