KRISYS - a KBMS Supporting Development and
Processing of Knowledge-based Applications
in Workstation/Server Environments

Abstract
Knowledge Base Management Systems (KBMS) should provide not only efficient and reliable management of knowledge bases (KB) but also means for constructing such KB in a stepwise fashion. In this paper, we present a KBMS prototype tailored to workstation/server environments that can be used flexibly as a tool for dynamically defining KB contents during application development and efficiently employed for KB manipulation during application processing. The support of these contradictory features of flexibility and efficient processing is reflected in the system architecture by means of an appropriate mapping scheme and of mechanisms to guarantee locality of KB accesses.
