Hayes-Roth, Frederick; And Others – 1978
A research plan for identifying and acting upon constraints that impede the development of knowledge-based intelligent systems is described. The two primary problems identified are knowledge programming, the task of which is to create an intelligent system that does what an expert says it should, and learning, the problem requiring the criticizing…

QUADE, E.S. – 1967
THREE METHODS OF COST-EFFECTIVENESS ARE DISCUSSED--USE OF COMPUTERS, MATHEMATICS, AND EXPERTISE. THE USE OF EXPERTISE IS EMPHASIZED. THE DISCUSSION ON EXPERTISE JUDGMENT IS BASED ON PAPERS BY O. HELMER, WHICH ILLUSTRATE THE DELPHI METHOD OR CYBERNETIC ARBITRATION. ALTHOUGH COMPUTER AND MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS (PARTICULARLY GAME THEORY) ARE BECOMING…

Hechinger, Fred M.; And Others – 1968
Three authorities in the field of education offer their views on the technological revolution in instructional materials. Fred Hechinger, education editor of the New York Times, discusses the range of devices available, from film strips to computers. He feels that industry is oversold on the future of educational technology, both because of the…

Dionne, Edward A.; Parkman, Ralph – 1968
Transportation, Agriculture, and Art are used as examples to establish how technology, especially computer-based technology, is involved in the life of man. Cities grow in population very rapidly; motor vehicles grow in number even more rapidly; both citcumstances raise problems--traffic congestion, economic loss, air pollution, urban…
