Malito) Newsgroups: net.ai,net.lang.prolog,net.lang.lisp Subject: expert system ``planner'' wanted Message-ID: <604@druxx.UUCP> Date: Wed, 22-Aug-84 18:05:41 EDT Article-I.D.: druxx.604 Posted: Wed Aug 22 18:05:41 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 23-Aug-84 04:57:40 EDT Organization: AT&T Information Systems Laboratories, Denver Lines: 32 We are currently planning on building a UNIX-based expert system to handle ``system administration'' on a computer system. My plan is to build a knowledge base containing facts about the computer system, as well as descriptions of possible actions and their consequences. The expert system would be presented with a description of the current world, and a goal. The planner (``inference engine'') will determine what actions are needed to get from the current world to a goal state. Due to time constraints, we are trying to find a planner that can accomplish the task described above. If anyone knows of such a planner (or a system containing one), please contact me. We need source, preferably for a UNIX system. Anything close will do. We would consider any purchase agreement and gladly accept freebies. Quick responses would be appreciated. (Also, any ``Have you checked...?'' would be great.) Any responses of general interest will be posted. thanks, Jeanine L.
