Methodological knowledge acquisition and knowledgeengineering have achievedincreasing attention in recentyears due both to active research projects and to successfulpractical applications. Both aspects have over the yearsbeen reflected in the structure of the European KnowledgeAcquisition Workshops (EKAW), where a users' forum hasalways been combined with a scientific workshop.This volume contains the proceedings of EKAW-92. The papersare organized into five thematic sectionson: - Technology transfer- General modelling approaches- Knowledgeformalization and automated methods- Elicitation and...
