Abstract

As a supplementation to other papers within this chapter on case-based approaches to Knowledge Engineering, we discuss some general aspects of case-based reasoning. We differentiate it from other case-using approaches and argue for the use of case-based reasoners within integrated knowledge engineering environments.
