Information systems are large repositories of factual and
inferential knowledge intended to be queried and maintained by a
wide variety of users with different backgrounds and work tasks.
The community of potential information system users is growing
rapidly with advances in hardware and software technology that
permit computer/communications support for more and more
application areas. Unfortunately, it is often felt that progress in
user interface technology has not quite matched that of other
areas. Technical solutions such as computer graphics, natural
language processing, or man-machine-man communications in office
systems are not enough by themselves. They should be complemented
by system features that ensure cooperative behavior of the
interfaces, thus reducing the training and usage effort required
for successful interaction. In analogy to a human dialog partner,
we call an interface cooperative if it does not just accept user
requests passively or answer them literally, but actively attempts
to understand the users' intentions and to help them solve their
applica tion problems. This leads to the central question addressed
by this book: What makes an information systems interface
cooperative, and how do we provide capabilities leading to
cooperative interfaces? Many answers are possible. A first aspect
concerns the formulation and accep tance of user requests. Many
researchers assume that such requests should be formulated in
natural language."
