*** I'm posting this for a friend without direct access to this group ! *** OPS5 for PC ? I'm looking for a full-blown version of OPS5 for the IBM-PC. Working with the VAX-VMS version of OPS5, I'd like to experiment on my (not so terribly loaded) private PC. TOPSI - as far as I know - does not support the essential features which make OPS5 unique: RETE-match and therefor no recency conflict resolution, terrible effects of rule growth on the resources (time!). Without Rete-Match, a program developed will not be portable to serious environments which is what I want. Does anybody have an idea where to get (buy or public domain) ? If nobody knows I might try to make my own (with Turbo-prolog or Pascal). But it might take me a long time...... @(^!^)@. Thank you very much in advance, Thomas Muhr, Berlin, W-Germany UUCP: ...!pyramid!tub!netmbx!morus (Germany: ...!unido!tub!netmbx!morus) "unido!tub!moritz"@seismo.CSS.GOV PS.: I would also like contact with anybody interested in or working with OPS5 or interested in ai-applications like configuration problems etc.

It may have migrated to the regular release by now. -- CSNet : maner@research1.bgsu.edu | CS Dept 419/372-2337 UUCP : {cbatt,cbosgd}!osu-cis!bgsuvax!maner | BGSU Generic : maner%research1.bgsu.edu@relay.cs.net | Bowling Green, OH 43403 Opinion : "If you're married, you deserve a MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER weekend!"
