Knowledge-based technology in the service of health.
The significance of numerical information for decision-making usually has to be assessed on the basis of knowledge that does not readily lend itself to quantification. Computational logic can help to handle the complexity of this process of interpretation without sacrificing the necessary rigour. When this approach is used, health indicators are expressed in the form of a "knowledge map".
