[comp.ai] looking for recommendations on expert system builders for the ibm pc

dsc@izimbra.CSS.GOV (David S. Comay) (10/26/88)

i'm looking for information and/or recommendations on expert system
builders for the ibm pc and compatibles.  the application will be a
`small' consultation-based expert system (on the order of a hundred
rules) and though i have heard of these three products out there, i
know little more about them or any others: ti's pc personal consultant,
vp-expert & the level5 system.

i would appreciate any information and or opinions on these products or
others out there that might fit the bill.

thanks for the help,

dsc

Stay away from VP-Expert!  It is a very rigid program to use and is not
flexible at all.  I would rather write it in Prolog.
