- I am currently studying towards a BCom Honours degree in Informatin Systems
- through the University of Cape Town, South Africa.
-
- In partial fulfilment of the degree I must present a Technical Report on an
- area of research. My topic isElectronic Performance Support Systems (EPSS) with
- special interest in the use of AI. Expert Systems are currently used but I am
- sure there is great possibilities for CBR and neural nets.
-
- The idea behind EPSS is improving the performance of workers by in-context
- on-the-job just-in-time support in such a manner that it leads to learning by
- the worker. This is a complex process but ispossibly a solution to thee
- predicament here in SA where we have the majority of the population with none
- or very low skills levels.
-
- Has any research been done ? or is there any interest being generated ?
