Research Abstract |
The purpose of the research was to work out languages and methods based on modal logic in order to apply them to the formal specifications of programming systems and knowledge representations in the A.I. area. RACCO is an executable specification language based on modal logic, with modularity. Its design objective is to describe realistic process-controreal-time systems and perform proto-typing. A processor is written in Commar Lisp for Racco and a graphic interface for visual simulation is under design. On the other hand, the concept of an interclive system for medical cares is worked out, whose main feature is amalgama of hypertext and knowledge systems. Though its implementation is yet to be planned, such a system would be highly useful to perform efficient and correct medical care. Here a formal description of the system and its behavior is done by means of modal oriented specification.
