| dc.description.abstract | As online education continues to gain papularity, discussion forums have become integral components of educational platform system. With the advent of the AI era, intelligent discussion forums are poised to become a prominent trend. In this research, we design an intelligent online discussion forum that integrates AI chatbot. The chatbot actively participate in conversations with real users, providing timely answers to questions, offering technical solutions, and even assisting with programming tasks. For system design, we adopted the MIAT methodology, which divides the complex system into smaller and simpler subsystems and then integrating them. This architectural approach enables us to easily comprehend the core functionalities of the system and the relationships between modules, while maintaining the independence of each functional module. This design enhances the maintainability of the intelligent online discussion forum system without affecting the operation of other modules. By applying the MIAT methodology, we not only improve system development efficiency, but also significantly expand the application scope and effectiveness of online educational discussion forums by incorporationg AI chatbot. | en_US |
