Abstract :
The authors discusses the Software Project Manager (SPM), which has been prototyped in Interference Corporation´s Automated Reasoning Tool (ART) on Symbolics artificial-intelligence workstations. They present an overview of the management model underlying SPM and define the essential concepts and relationships needed to model the project-management domain. They describe the knowledge representation strategy used to implement this conceptual model. They illustrate the power of using conceptual model-based reasoning in building intelligent decision-support systems for the project management domain.<>
