REQUEST FOR EXPERT SYSTEMS
At NRL, we are working on a research project to develop a software
engineering methodology for rule-based expert systems. To gain insight
into devising criteria for the separation of knowledge in a production
system, we need to statically analyze the structure and connectivity of
rules and facts in large, widely used knowledge bases. We would
appreciate hearing from anyone who has access to a mature production system
and is willing to send us a copy of it. Because many of these systems
contain proprietary information, we will sign a non-disclosure agreement
with any organization whose system we obtain. Since we only care about
analyzing the connectivity between rules, the proprietary information
can be removed. Any help will be appreciated.
