Abstract :
AI developments have been based on an exploratory approach whereas software engineering approaches can be characterised as specification-based. We present an integrated toolset that accommodates and encourages a mixed-mode development, thereby maximising the strengths and minimising the weaknesses of both approaches. Moreover, the interactive nature of the toolset provides an effective means to validate the adequacy of the developing system
