Abstract :
CUBUS is a knowledge-based system for the analysis and interpretation of balance-sheets and profit and loss accounts of commercial customers. It was decided to make CUBUS judgements available within the existing mainframe database environment. The integration of mainframe databases, knowledge-based systems running on workstations and the judgement of human users raised the question of what general principles must be applied when such diverse components have to be combined in the most efficient way. In twelve theses, general guidelines which proved to be helpful for the design of cooperative systems are presented
