Abstract

CORAL is a relational D.B. containing relevant clinical data, acquired following the medical way of thinking compared with the patient’s problem. The structure of the system is based upon a theorem prover, similar in some aspects with the well known logic based language: PROLOG; namely, it is guided by inference rules. Some of these can define the model of the system and are transparent for the user, who interacts with it in pseudo-natural language.
