It basically contains \na verbal description of an expert system. It allows the calculation of the estimated fair rent for \na flat. By hand, one may need a weekend to do this task. With our computerized version, the \n<jats:italic>Munich Rent Advisor<\/jats:italic>, the user just fills in a form in a few minutes, and the rent is calculated \nimmediately. We also extended the functionality and applicability of the <jats:italic>Mietspiegel<\/jats:italic> so that \nthe user need not answer all questions on the form. The key to computing with partial \ninformation using high-level programming was to use constraint logic programming. We rely \non the Internet, and more specifically the World Wide Web, to provide this service to a broad \nuser group, the citizens of Munich and the people who are planning to move to Munich. To \nprocess the answers from the questionnaire and return its result, we wrote a small simple \nstable special-purpose web server directly in ECL<jats:sup><jats:italic>i<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup>PS<jats:sup><jats:italic>e<\/jats:italic><\/jats:sup>. More than 10,000 people have used \nour service in the last three years. This article describes the experiences in implementing and \nusing the <jats:italic>Munich Rent Advisor<\/jats:italic>. Our results suggest that logic programming with constraints \ncan be an important ingredient in intelligent internet systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1471068401001181","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,7,27]],"date-time":"2002-07-27T13:16:52Z","timestamp":1027775812000},"page":"303-319","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The Munich Rent Advisor: A success for logic programming on then Internet"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"1","author":[{"given":"THOM","family":"FR\u00dcHWIRTH","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"SLIM","family":"ABDENNADHER","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2001,6,15]]},"container-title":["Theory and Practice of Logic Programming"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S1471068401001181","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,29]],"date-time":"2019-03-29T19:25:34Z","timestamp":1553887534000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S1471068401001181\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2001,5]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2001,5]]}},"alternative-id":["S1471068401001181"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s1471068401001181","relation":{},"ISSN":["1471-0684","1475-3081"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1471-0684","type":"print"},{"value":"1475-3081","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2001,5]]}}}
