Abstract
The development of software systems that really
assist engineering design requires an important modelling
effort. Computational treatment of these problems is done
through the application of software engineering and
knowledge engineering techniques. Both fields have
significantly evolved during the last few years, and now
advanced methodologies for the development of conventional
software systems and knowledge-based systems, emphasizing
different modelling principles, are available. In particular,
both object-oriented model ling and knowledge modelling
present useful individual characteristics that are
complementary. The paper analyses the need for integration
of those useful modelling aspects, and presents an integrated
scheme for the development of knowledge-based design
systems (KBDS's). By way of illustration, the modelling
scheme proposed is applied to the development of a KBDS in
a specific domain of structural design.
