From: Ken Laws <Laws@SRI-AI.ARPA> Teknowledge (of Palo Alto) has released two software packages for expert system builders. M.1, at $12,500, is for those who want to explore expert systems concepts on the IBM PC. The price includes a four-day training course for one person. S.1 is for professional knowledge engineers developing large-scale knowledge systems. It sells for $50,000, which includes a two-week training course for two people, a sample system with detailed case history, and access to Teknowledge's applications engineering services. S.1 currently runs on Xerox 1100 and 1108 workstations and is being ported to VAX 11/750 and 11/780 under VMS. -- Ken Laws

We, at the Department of Computer Science of the University of South Carolina are interested in acquiring AI tools for construction of knowledge bases and expert systems in general. In particular we are interested in (1) Domain independent Knowledge Engineering tools (eg. EMYCIN) (2) Knowledge Representation language schemes such as KRL and (3) Natural language Processing schemes (eg. Klone, etc.) We would appreciate any information on the availability, sources and means of obtaining such systems. Any information/suggestions may be mailed to either Gautam Biswas or Manton Matthews akgua!usceast!biswas akgua!usceast!matthews We will be glad to compile a list and post a summary of the responses.

I'm looking for feedback concerning any of the currently available tools for building expert systems. Does anyone have experience good or bad using OPS5, S.1, M.1, M.1a, Timm-Pc, Rulemaster, KDS, EX-TRAN7, Expert- Ease, or TEK-4404. I need a system that allows calls to subroutines, and has accesable hooks. Would also like to correspond with other Expert System designers. Phil Bowman Creare Inc. Hanover, NH {...dartvax!creare!pbb}
