A Comprehensive Tourism Information System

This paper presents the architecture and the knowledge base of a destination decision system named TBJ (Traveling In Beijing), which carries out the design principle of the CTIS (Comprehensive Tourism Information System). The CTIS proposes a new design principle which requires a tourism information system to cognize tourist´s truly requirement and provides proper information based on this requirement. This cognition can be achieved by considering tourist´s information, scenery information, general knowledge of tourism and situational variables in one context. The system which implements this principle can provide more precise but less amount of information based on traveler´s truly requirement.
