Description
The subject of this thesis is the design and
implement at ion of an expert system from a standard data
base management software language. The advantages and
limitations of such a system design are discussed and
supported by an accompanying implementation. Both, the
design and implementation, demonstrate what gives the
expertise or personification of human reasoning to a
machine and why this type of reasoning is well suited to
certain types of problems. This fundamental departure from
traditional deterministic analytical problem solving is
accomplished by developing a system that is heuristic in
nature. This heuristic implementation provides for a
system that assists in the development of an emerging
solution, rather than a deterministic solution in and of
itself (i.e., a system that is programmed with a set of
meta-knowledge rules that governs the decision making
process and acts upon a second set of knowledge rules).
