Abstract
Textual CBR applications deal with problems that have traditionally been addressed by the Information Retrieval community, namely the handling of textual documents. Since CBR is an AI technique, the questions arise as to what kind of knowledge may enhance the system, where this knowledge comes from, and how it contributes to the performance of such a system. We will address these questions in this paper by showing how the various pieces of knowledge available in a specific domain can be utilized.
