Abstract
We present an object-oriented framework in Java for building CBR systems that is an evolution of previous work on knowledge intensive CBR [8,9]. JColibri is a software artifact that promotes software reuse for building CBR systems, integrating the application of well proven Software Engineering techniques with a knowledge level description that separates the problem solving method, that defines the reasoning process, from the domain model, that describes the domain knowledge. Framework instantiation is supported by a graphical interface that guides the configuration of a particular CBR system, alleviating the steep learning curve typical for these type of systems.
Supported by the Spanish Committee of Science & Technology (TIC2002-01961).
