Richer, Mark; and Clancey, William
Abstract
This article describes GUIDON-WATCH, a graphic interface to NEOMYCIN that uses multiple windows and the mouse to allow a user to browse through the NEOMYCIN knowledge base and view reasoning processes during a consultation. The results reported include methods for providing multiple views of a database, techniques for illustrating dynamic processes including a search strategy, and some conclusions regarding automatic management of a multiple window display.
