[comp.ai.shells] Looking for Production Rule system for 386

rapp@sunmg.tellabs.com (Chuck Rapp) (01/10/91)

I am interested in learning the names of any production rule systems
which meet the following criteria:

	- Runs on a 386 platform, Unix operating system;
	- Forward-chaining;
	- Allows calls to C routines in the action section
	  of rule;
	- Action section possibly allows multiple actions
	  (not critical);
	- Programmer can specify different strategies for
	  solving rule contention (e.g., select most
	  specific rule);
	- System speed must be fast - I plan on using
	  rule-based programming to select response to
	  human input so the system must be fast enough
	  to satisfy impatient customers. Perhaps some
	  sort of rule compiler;
	- System must be supported - somebody to answer
	  questions or fix bugs in timely fashion.
	- Some control over working memory; when customer
	  quits session, WM should be cleaned out and
	  wait for next customer to come along.

Please send all responses to me directly. I will mail summaries
to directly interested parties or post if there is greater interest.
