The Centre for Contemporary Canadian Art(CCCA) was founded in 1995 by Bill Kirby, with Peter D. R. Brown and Arthur B. C. Drache, Q. C. The Centre is a federally incorporated, not-for-profit charitable arts organization, administered by a Board of Directors, and based in Toronto, Canada. It has been managed since its inception by Founder and Executive Director, Bill Kirby. The focus of the CCCA's activity is the Canadian Art Database Project. The CCCA is essentially a ’virtual organization’, with no permanent staff and no permanent facilities. As funds have permitted, however, the Director has been assisted in developing The Canadian Art Database, by members of the CCCA Group, experienced artists and arts professionals who have been engaged under contract for varying periods over the past seven years. The CCCA has been further assisted by York University students in developing various sections of the project, and has contracted additional, specialized short-term personnel, as required, to meet specific production needs. 1, record 2, English, - Centre%20for%20Contemporary%20Canadian%20Art

Le Centre de l’art contemporain canadien (CACC) est fondé en 1995 par Bill Kirby, avec l’aide de Peter D.R. Brown et Arthur B.C. Drache, c.r. Le Centre est une organisation artistique sans but lucratif constituée sous le régime fédéral, administrée par un Conseil d'administration, dont le siège est à Toronto, Canada. Le Centre est géré depuis sa fondation par son fondateur et directeur exécutif, Bill Kirby. L’activité du CACC se concentre sur le Projet de la Base de données sur l’art canadien. Le CACC est essentiellement une « organisation virtuelle », qui n’a ni personnel permanent ni locaux permanents. Toutefois, le directeur a reçu une aide pour développer la Base de données sur l’art canadien de membres du group CACC, des artistes chevronnés et des spécialistes du domaine des arts, qu’il a engagés sous contrat, en fonction des fonds disponibles, pour des périodes de diverse durée au cours des sept dernières années. Le CACC a également reçu l’aide d’étudiants de l’Université York pour le développement de plusieurs sections du projet, et a engagé sous contrat à court terme du personnel spécialisé, selon les besoins, qui s’est occupé de tâches spécifiques de production. 1, record 2, French, - Centre%20de%20l%27art%20contemporain%20canadien

SOPHIE's central representational scheme for domain knowledge is a simulation model rather than a semantic network because the system focuses on qualitative models of processes rather than on the organization of facts. Indeed, simulation-based reasoning will be the central theme of the whole SOPHIE project(Brown and Burton, 1973). 3, record 3, English, - qualitative%20process%20modeling
