Abstract

The use of the language discussed here, is to customize an expert-system (ES) construction tool, RAFFAELLO, in the application. We are concerned, here, with a version, being an ES itself, of the frame-definition and navigation component of RAFFAELLO. Allowed frame-topology may be deep, i. e. with an unbound depth of the tree. Frame schemata of the application ES are described by means of a production system (PS), “CuProS”, with particular conventions for conveying particular features: e. g. slotless repeatable subframes, or local CuProS'es in instance's subtrees, n-to-n relation insertion, retrieval - key local definition, ancestry-driven disambiguation of polysemic slots, etc. Examples are drawn from the application to ONOMATURGE, an ES for word-formation.
