Abstract

A Knowledge-Engineering Protocol-Suite is presented that generally includes methods and systems, apparatus for search-space organizational validation, and appurtenances for use therewith. The protocol-suite includes a search-space organizational validation method for synergistically combining knowledge bases of disparate resolution data-sets, such as by actual or simulated integrating of lower resolution expert-experience based model-like templates to higher resolution empirical data-capture dense quantitative search-spaces. Furthermore, from alternative technological vantages, the suite relates to situations where this synergetic combining is beneficially accomplished, such as in control systems, command control systems, command control communications systems, computational apparatus associated with the aforesaid, and to quantitative modeling and measuring tools used therewith. The protocol-suite also includes facile algorithmic tools for use with the method and a process-modeling computer for use in a distributed asynchronous system of process modeling computers.
