Building Expert Systems

This course will teach the theoretic fundamentals of knowledge-based systems,
the design techniques of knowledge-based systems, and will present how to
implement knowledge-based systems using NASA's "C" Language Integrated
Production System (CLIPS). Students will attain a working knowledge of
terminology, techniques, and tools, and will be given hands-on
experience using CLIPS and a copy of CLIPS to take with them. Students will
also build several small systems. 



Developing Object-Oriented Knowledge-Based Systems

This course presents how to implement sophisticated intelligent systems.
Students will be given hands-on experience using CLIPS (NASA's "C" Language
Integrated Production System) by building several small systems.  Students 
will be given a copy of CLIPS to take with them.

Course topics include: truth-maintenance; probabilistic reasoning; 
object-oriented knowledge-based systems; using CLIPS for intelligent 
database queries; embedding CLIPS for knowledge-based control systems. 
A discussion of research around the world on knowledge-based systems,
including real-time systems and distributed artificial intelligence 
(cooperative systems) will occur.

Prerequisite: Building Expert Systems Short Course or an expert systems or
artificial intelligence course. Course notes and overheads (300) will be 
provided, as well as a copy of CLIPS.
