Methodological knowledge acquisition and knowledge engineering have
achievedincreasing attention in recent years due both to active
research projects and to successful practical applications. Both
aspects have over the years been reflected in the structure of the
European Knowledge Acquisition Workshops (EKAW), where a users'
forum has always been combined with a scientific workshop. This
volume contains the proceedings of EKAW-92. The papers are
organized into five thematic sectionson: - Technology transfer -
General modelling approaches - Knowledgeformalization and automated
methods - Elicitation and diagnosis of human knowledge - Practice
and experiences of knowledge acquisition. A total of 65 persons
from around the world served as the program committee. Their
recommendations and sometimes very detailed comments helped both
workshop organizers and individual authors to achieve the high
quality reflected in this volume.
Do you want to drink evil, foul cocktails? Do you want to recite
delightless cocktail poetry while downing a horrid shot, (say a
"Warm Urine Sample," "Week-Ender," or a "Zombie Penguin")? Look
inside: Drink a festering "Mug Island Iced Tea" along with this:
"Drink deep along with me Our buzz is yet to be. The End of Day,
for which The Happy Hour was made." Try this with an award-losing
"Double Agent Orange" Martini: "To keep your cocktails brimming
With rum in the rummy cup, Whenever you're dry, admit it; Whenever
you're drunk, shut up." Recite this verse during the consumption of
three daunting "Obliviators: " "For this is wisdom: to drink, to
live, To take what fate, or the barman may give. To ask no
question, to make no prayer, To kiss the glass and caress what's
there, Speed bed spins' flow as you drain your cup, To have, -- to
hold, -- and in time, -- throw up." Including somewhere between
three million and three hundred cocktail recipes, this book
contains new and classic cocktails from Mug & Mali, as well as
untrue factoids, strong cocktail-induced reactions, and other bits
of monkey business. Readers will find the miscellany startling and
the cocktails addicting - and vice-versa. "Mug & Mali's
Devilish Cocktail Concoctions, Mug & Mali's Miscellany Volume
21," is imprudent yet foolish, rivaling such books as, "A Field
Guide to Detestable Fauna," and "Do Trousers Matter?" It's another
piece of work that will keep you up nights reading and drinking.
This is a work of humor and satire, and has not been endorsed by
Abraham Lincoln, Bill Gates, or Eleanor Roosevelt. Enjoy
