Abstract :
The aim of CommonKADS is to fill the need for a structured methodology for KBS projects by constructing a set of engineering models built with the organization and the application in mind. We give a brief overview of the CommonKADS methodology, paying special attention to the expertise modeling-an aspect of KBS development that distinguishes it from other types of software development. We illustrate the CommonKADS approach by showing how aspects of the VT system for elevator design would be modeled.<>
