More Information
Summary:Expert systems are defined as man and machine systems with specialized problem-solving expertise; such systems rely on a data base of knowledge about a particular subject area, an understanding of the problems occurring within that area, and skill at solving these problems. Twenty-one expert systems already in existence for solving different types of environmental problem are described, including systems for interpretation, prediction, diagnosis and repair, and prognosis. Very few of these systems were at present actually in use.
