< cross posted to effected groups; please followup only to net.micro.pc >
Here's the third and (I hope) last list of artificial intelligence
software for MS-DOS based machines. I started with expert system
shells, then picked up Prolog processors, and Lisp and other languages
found their way in. "Decision support" tools are presumably decision
tree managers; for their relation to expert systems, see the hot and
heavy discussion in net.ai and mod.ai (or actually, the summary I've
posted to those groups).
Thanks to Lou Fried (FRIED@SRI-KL.ARPA) and Dallas Webster
(CMP.BARC@R20.UTexas.Edu or ut-sally!batman!dallas) for additions to
this list.
The names, addresses, phone numbers, and especially prices are not
guaranteed to be free from typos, line noise, or obsolescence. I have no
experience or further information on any of these packages; don't call
me, call the company. On the other hand, if *you* have used any of
these systems, please drop me a line; I'll be happy to summarize and
repost. I'd also like to hear of any products I'd forgotten, or any
errata to my list.
