TL;DR: This paper discusses long-term prospects of AI-ED research with the aim of giving a clear view of what the authors need for further promotion of the research from both the AI and ED points of view.
Abstract: This paper discusses long-term prospects of AI-ED research with the aim of giving a clear view of what we need for further promotion of the research from both the AI and ED points of view. An analysis of the current status of AI-ED research is done in the light of intelligence, conceptualization, standardization and theory-awareness. Following this, an ontology-based architecture with appropriate ontologies is proposed. Ontological engineering of IS/ID is next discussed followed by a road map towards an ontology-aware authoring system. Heuristic design patterns and XML-based documentation are also discussed.

TL;DR: The idea for this book on Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) was sparked by the success of the ITS08 international conference, and it is the hope that all readers will find the book informative and thought-provoking.
Abstract: The idea for this book on Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) was sparked by the success of the ITS08 international conference. The number of presentations and their quality bore witness to the vitality and maturity of the field, and the enthusiasm of the participants held out a promise of sustainability and innovative research. Long life to ITS research! The book is divided into five parts. The introductory chapters to these parts, which summarize foundations, developments, strengths and weaknesses in each of the areas covered, are addressed to all readers. For those who want more in-depth knowledge, we give the floor to researchers who present their work, their results, and their view of what the future holds. It is our hope that all readers will find the book informative and thought-provoking.

TL;DR: Some successful use-cases in tasks such as a design review, a patent application, and solving a quality problem are discussed, and the effects of the ontological framework as a consistent viewpoint for capturing implicit functional knowledge and as a conceptual interlingua among designers are discussed.

TL;DR: This paper discusses ontologies that guide conceptualization of artefacts from the functional point of view that are based on an extended device ontology and its application in the mechanical domain.
Abstract: It has been recognized that design knowledge is scattered around technology and target domains. One of the two major reasons for it is that different frameworks (viewpoints) for conceptualization of design knowledge are used when people try to describe knowledge in different domains. The other is that several key functional concepts are left undefined or even unidentified. In this paper, we first overview the state of the art of ontological engineering, which we believe is able to make a considerable contribution to resolving these difficulties. We then discuss our enterprise aiming at systematization of functional knowledge used for synthesis. We discuss ontologies that guide conceptualization of artefacts from the functional point of view. The framework for knowledge systematization is based on an extended device ontology and a functional concept ontology built on top of the extended device ontology. This paper particularly discusses the extended device ontology and its application in the mechanical dom...

TL;DR: In this article, Nonaka and Takeuchi argue that Japanese firms are successful precisely because they are innovative, because they create new knowledge and use it to produce successful products and technologies, and they reveal how Japanese companies translate tacit to explicit knowledge.
Abstract: How has Japan become a major economic power, a world leader in the automotive and electronics industries? What is the secret of their success? The consensus has been that, though the Japanese are not particularly innovative, they are exceptionally skilful at imitation, at improving products that already exist. But now two leading Japanese business experts, Ikujiro Nonaka and Hiro Takeuchi, turn this conventional wisdom on its head: Japanese firms are successful, they contend, precisely because they are innovative, because they create new knowledge and use it to produce successful products and technologies. Examining case studies drawn from such firms as Honda, Canon, Matsushita, NEC, 3M, GE, and the U.S. Marines, this book reveals how Japanese companies translate tacit to explicit knowledge and use it to produce new processes, products, and services.
