[12:06] ToddSchneider: David, what is a 'structure'?

[12:52] Douglas R. Miles: (That wasn't quite a paper i linked to.. but putting together a talk on the subject)

[12:54] Gary: The 737 problem is in part dumb automation.

[12:58] Douglas R. Miles: Terry see above link

[13:00] RaviSharma: ken discussed and we agreed to carryout a doodle poll to determine if face to face summit session is desirable and get commitments from F2F participants!

[13:02] RaviSharma: Ram described an NSF opportunity relating to OKN and also informed that an issue can perhaps be put together for washington journal relating to ontology.

[13:02] Ram D. Sriram1: Logging off. Have another call to attend to.

[13:14] TerryLongstreth: PDDL - Planning Domain Definition Language

[13:15] TerryLongstreth: Can ontology(or ontologies as a class) be used to explain events after the fact?

[13:19] RaviSharma: Doug - what you described looked like Case Based Reasoning

[13:20] RaviSharma: Also newer CRM systems and both of these navigate based on inputs from info seeker as well as the help desk tiers that handle the info seeker!

[13:21] RaviSharma: Terry and Ram thanks for clarification
