Hi Paul -- Good to talk to folks who know about the great expert systems debacle from way back. One aspect that might be of interest is that I believe Emycin...
(responding to Adrian) ... What turned it from a disappointment to a debacle was the hype, which is why I'm sensitive to it now. ... By 1985 we had expert...

How is it that this autoresponding spambot hasn't been unsubscribed from the list by now? It's incredibly tedious to know that every new question or idea is ...
Tom, ... I guess I am a little slow.. I didn't even recognize what he was doing. Just went back and looked and sure enough.. every problem introduced seems to...
I've noticed this sort of behavior myself, but didn't realize the extent of it as it has been spread out so much. Adrian, you're welcome to continue...

Who will use this elaborated traceability matrix and what will they use it for?...
The traceability matrix will be used more by the QA team, but I think it can be useful for the whole it team. And with the traceability matrix, any requirement...
