A change registration section records change data indicating which of the primary data has been changed. A data conversion section converts the primary data into secondary data which has a data format compatible with the knowledge base system. A knowledge base section has a secondary data storage section which stores the secondary data, and a reasoning calculation section accesses the secondary data based on a received retrieval inquiry. A knowledge management section controls the conversion section. Specifically, the knowledge management section controls the conversion section to convert the primary data corresponding to the secondary data to be accessed by the reasoning calculating section when the recorded change data indicates that the primary data corresponding to the secondary data to be accessed by the reasoning calculating section has been changed.Other References
