Abstract
Situated cognition is not a mere philosophical concern: it has pragmatic implications for current practice in knowledge acquisition. Tools must move from being design-focused to being maintenance-focused. Reuse-based approaches (e.g. using problem solving methods) will fail unless the reused descriptions can be extensively modified to suit the new situation. Knowledge engineers must model not only descriptions of expert knowledge, but also the environment in which a knowledge base will perform. Descriptions of knowledge must be constantly re-evaluated. This re-evaluation process has implications for assessing representations 1.
