Abstract :
Various software design principles useful for knowledge-based systems software (KBSS) are discussed. In particular, the applicability of abstraction, information hiding, modularity, localization, uniformity, completeness, confirmability, reusability, and extensibility in KBSS programming paradigms is examined. Conclusions are drawn on the limitations and/or the appropriateness of the KBSS programming paradigms with respect to facilitating the software design principles.<>
