Information Technology and Libraries, Vol. 13, No. 2, June 1994, p. 133-147

This paper briefly reviews issues and advances in the design of interference engines and knowledge structures. It then discusses in detail issues associated with the design of interfaces to such functions, and describes some general design principles to guide in the implementation of these interfaces. Finally, a functional prototype is described that is based on such principles to illustrate their application.
