| The following
links are articles highlighting modeling issues that are effectively
dealt with using Natural Language Modeling. In each article subject
matter expert(s) create a true sentence and then answer a series
of questions based on the subject area being addressed. The NLM
procedure uses the expert's answers to turn any true declarative
sentence into instance(s) of valid fact type(s). For brevity all
aspects of the examples that are discussed are not wholly defined
nor is the complete procedure explained. The NLM analysis technique
scales linearly. That means that knowledge is defined only once.
Then as the scope of a project expands, previously defined knowledge
does not need to be reanalyzed.
The articles address common
information modeling problems and the analysis problems are a
set of significant examples that can be analyzed to determine
the needed elementary sentences and the corresponding tables.
Try an analysis problem, fax or e-mail me your solution, and watch
for my solution in the next issue of the Journal
of Conceptual Modeling.
