<> We are planning to develop an ophthalmology expert system. Beyond rule-based simulation of an ophthalmic surgeon's thinking, the system would consult records of previous patients & their treatment (using a relational database) and test hypothetical treatments (using a physiological model). We can: (1) use a commercial expert system development package, or (2) reinvent the wheel. We would prefer to do "1". Most commercial systems run on PC's or on some particular mini or mainframe. Most cost a bundle. ===> Anyone know of expert system tools that run under UNIX? ===> We have FranzLisp (Opus 38.91) under Sort-Of-BSD UNIX on a ===> Masscomp MC-500. We might be able to port Lisp source, but couldn't get too deeply involved in matters best left to computer scientists. Send mail to me; I'll summarize and post if replies are of general interest. Thanks for your help. -- Joel M Miller (415) 561-1703 {{ucbvax,dual,sun}!twg,{ucbvax!mtxinu,dual!ptsfa,sun!texsun}!politik}!ski!jmm
