Description
Artificial intelligence for the personal computer user has arrived. Expert systems, once the domain of academic research, are today's hottest new market in commercial software. Programming Expert Systems in Modula-2 is a do-it-yourself guide to planning, writing and implementing a knowledge-based expert system in the PC environment - using Modula-2 and an "authoring" system developed by Brian Sawyer and Dennis Foster and presented here in its entirety. Creating an expert system can be a daunting job, but the unique authoring system in this book makes it manageable. The book gives you a framework for organizing information and probability data for decision-making and problem-solving in a wide range of fields - business, health care, manufacturing, education and many more. Best of all, you do not have to learn any specialized language associated with artificial intelligence, such as Lisp or Prolog - the entire program can be written in Modula-2.
Complete with diagrams, tables, and easy-to-follow listings, the book features proven techniques for building an expert system, from elementary engineering to system architecture; A sample knowledge base demonstrating an expert system "in action"; practical tips on how to use an expert system in common, problem-solving environments and an appendix that lets you convert standard Modula-2 to use Borland International's hot, new, low-priced Turbo Modula-2.
