Abstract

This article illustrates the applicability of AIML (Artificial Intelligence Markup Language) in the management processes of knowledge bases, with particular attention to applicability in the contexts of e-learning. For this purpose, the authors discuss a TutorBot planned to be able to support the learners of an e-learning platform; moreover, TutorBot has the possibility, aside from manipulating direct questions in natural language, to produce research on the diffused knowledge bases (e.g., the Internet) through direct interaction with a search engine. Finally, the management problem in AIML of retrieving information of TutorBot is faced in the interaction with the search engine; to this purpose, the authors suggest a new tag used in AIML that allows for management of this specificity.
