Knowledge discovery is a concept of the field of computer science that describes the process of automatically searching large volumes of data for patterns that can be considered knowledge about the data. It is often described as deriving knowledge from the input data. This complex topic can be categorized according to 1) what kind of data is searched; and 2) in what form is the result of the search represented. The most well-known branch of data mining is knowledge discovery, also known as Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD). Just as many other forms of knowledge discovery it creates abstractions of the input data. The knowledge obtained through the process may become additional data that can be used for further usage and discovery. Another promising application of knowledge discovery is in the area of software modernization which involves understanding existing software artifacts. This process is related to a concept of reverse engineering. Usually the knowledge obtained from existing software is presented in the form of models to which specific queries can be made when necessary. An entity relationship is a frequent format of representing knowledge obtained from existing software. Object Management Group (OMG) developed specification Knowledge Discovery Metamodel (KDM) which defines an ontology for the software assets and their relationships for the purpose of performing knowledge discovery of existing code. Knowledge discovery from existing software systems, also known as software mining is closely related to data mining, since existing software artifacts contain enormous business value, key for the evolution of software systems. Instead of mining individual data sets, software mining focuses on metadata, such as database schemas. From Wikipedia under the

Massively important. Genetics means that now we can begin to change the DNA of certain organisms to work for us. EX: bacteria injected with a DNA changing virus might now help us whereas the normal bacteria would have been harmful Answered by lightning_bots - Sun Nov 26 14:39:50 2006 Will science continue with new discoveries and advancements or have we met a limit to our scientific knowledge Q. Please use reliable sources to develop a position and back it with examples and history of chemistry and quantum mechanics. please and thank you, your opinion is important to me. Asked by happiesthiker2 - Mon Jan 7 21:05:22 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Science will continue with new discoveries and advancements for quite some time. Not only are there unsolved questions in virtually every field (including those you mentioned) but history provides many examples of those who very mistakenly pronounced that science was close to reaching the end of all discovery (mosts vividly, this was the generally accepted scientific viewpoint around the late 1800s). Answered by Jon - Mon Jan 7 21:14:58 2008 Have perturbations in Keplerian orbits led to the discovery of planets other than Neptune?
Q. I appreciate your knowledge of celestial mechanics. Asked by Crash Fu - Mon Aug 17 13:01:13 2009 - - 11 Answers - 0 Comments A. No. Pluto is often claimed to be discovered that way, but the perturbations of the orbit of Neptune had been long ago identified as measurement errors, when Pluto got discovered - far away from the hypothetical planet claimed to produce the perturbations on Neptune.
