Abstract
Maintenance of Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) systems became an important area since applications of CBR technologies were established in different real-world domains. Maintenance issues cover all aspects that help to keep a running CBR system in a usable state of high quality. Concepts and techniques that were developed for maintenance of CBR systems range from methodologies and frameworks that particularly define phases, steps, and tasks necessary to integrate maintenance into the CBR process up to specific programs that enable CBR engineers to carry out the maintenance activities. In this paper, we exemplify this range of research on maintenance of CBR systems by brief characterizations of the Siam methodology, the MaMa maintenance manual, and the MaSh maintenance shell. The overall goal of this paper is then to conclude areas for further research in maintenance for CBR systems from the experience of the work on Siam, MaMa, MaSh, and related approaches.
