Re: [OpenCyc-devel] OpenCyc on Ubuntu 7.10

Dick,

  Have you given a presentation on the mKR interface and langauge to the Cyc Foundation durring a Conference call already?
  If not, (or if so, but there might be new members since then), would you be interested in presenting your system sometime?

This is really amazing work

  You might want to try the mKR language interface to
  Cyc knowledge bases (http://mKRmKE.org/).
  mKR is an English-like language.
  It is implemented in the mKE program.

  mKE connects to both the SubL interface and 
  the newer Concept Browser/Web Services interface.

  P.S.
  I'm not suggesting this re: efficiency, only re: a convenient,
  user-friendly interface.

  Dick

    No. I think you are right and it will work, but I don't know what is the performance difference. I am interested in testing the performance of the Cyc inference engine. I was always under the impression that Java based implementations are slower than the original systems. I don't know if this is the case with ResearchCyc. Do you know anything about this?

    Thanks you, regards,
    Paul.
