Abstract

The PEST System is a totally interactive, forward chaining, rule-based expert system shell. It was primarily, though not exclusively, designed for the development of scientifically related expert systems in Pascal, involving both symbolic and numeric computation. It accommodates the development of procedural knowledge, generates its own knowledge base code, embodies a simple but effective way of handling uncertainty, has a sophisticated interface, caters for different control mechanisms and contains an efficient explanation sub-system.
