Abstract
An information processing system which understands the input information as a situation, infers the requirements that situation merits and the preferred responses to those requirements using a knowledge base which has knowledge about the situations, requirements and their responses and the relations among them, and by generating these inferences further understands the input and the situation, which enables it to perform efficiently and effectively, given small amount of input information. If input information is in natural language, the linguistic knowledge base is used to analyze the input natural language information. Further, a knowledge of the user, the operations performed by the user and knowledge of the relationship between the operations of the user and the attribute of the user may also be used by the system to appropriately operate for each user.
