The author was sponsored by the Institute of International Education on an ITT-fellowship. This paper introduces a frame-based description language and studies methods for reasoning about problems using knowledge expressed in the language. The system is based on the metaphor of a society of communicating experts and incorporates within this framework most of the currently known AI techniques, such as pattern-directed invocation, explicit control of reasoning, propagation of constraints, dependency recording, context mechanisms, message passing, conflict resolution, default reasoning, etc. MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Institute of International Education 2008-04-10T16:16:39Z 2008-04-10T16:16:39Z 1979-01 Working Paper http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/41145 en_US MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory Working Papers, WP-178 application/pdf MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
