In a previous letter to the Editor [Nuclear Safety, Vol. 31, No. 4 (October-December 1990)], the authors expounded the importance of effective use of information in the nuclear industry. As a result, they received several requests for a full article on this subject. This article starts with segments of that letter; its tenet is that valuable information is stored in our nuclear experience data bases that must be capitalized on for enhanced operation of our plants, training, and rule-makings. After an introduction, a method of adaptive information retrieval based on neural network methodology is introduced an followed by an example. 8 refs.
