Navin, I saw your note on IBM's expert system environment (ESE). I worked one summer with the group that developed it. First, it's no longer called PRISM. They changed that fine name, used throughout the research and development, to Expert System Development Environment/ Expert System Consultation Environment, the two subsystems of ESE which are sold separately or together. (I don't think they have reversed this decision since I left.) Secondly, It is written in PASCAL, not LISP. Finally, it was created at the IBM Research Center in Palo Alto, California (where I worked). I don't know a tremendous amount about it (having spent only a couple months working on interfaces to it) but I might be able to give you some general answers to specific questions about it.
