Abstract

How do domain-specific cognitive systems interface with knowledge from beyond their respective domains? In this paper, we draw on the notion of domain-specificity in programming language theory to provide a computational account of how domain-specific systems might interface with domain-general world knowledge, as well as with other domain-specific systems.
