Short description (English)	Interactive Software for case-based knowledge capture and probabilistic cost estimation
Abstract (English)	This is a proposal to develop a novel methodology and software for acquiring expert procedural knowledge for use in project pricing calculations. An approach that has been developed within artificial intelligence known as derivational analogy will be employed for the first time in this area. Cost calculation methods in similar past projects are adapted and reused in order to obtain estimates of project prices and statistical confidence levels. Reliable and accurate estimates will help our industrial partner initiate international business activities.
