Abstract
Database models and systems can be made intelligent by adding knowledge and
inferencing capability. The tools for knowledge representation and inferencing are provided within
the context of expert systems. The inference and object-based knowledge representation
concepts are related to the database concepts and hence a relational database can be closely
integrated with a knowledge base. Objects and
inheritance can be used as higher level structures in dealing with relational databases.
.
Hierarchical representation can show clearly the objects relationship and also the
inheritance.
II Computer Science Information System II (CSIS) has been designed using a structured object
model (SOM) approach to represent knowledge and data modeling graphically. This system is an
object-oriented expert database system .for storing information on student, staff and
research of Computer Science Section, USM. A flexible query system was designed so that users
do not have to know any database language command to perform the query. In addition to that, the
system also integrated an expert system for course registration counselling, especially for those
who have problems in courses registration. Information or facts needed by the knowledge base for
this consultation is stored in the database.
