Programming language selector (abstract only)

Abstract

A knowledge-based system has been designed and developed to select a list of possible programming languages for a given project. The rule-based development tool INSIGHT 2+ was used to implement this expert system on an AT-compatible microcomputer. User-specific information, such as graphics, mathematics, and report generation requirements, is gathered through a series of questions. Then rules are used to evaluate the appropriateness of each language. Upon completion of evaluation, the user may expand on any of the selected languages. We will discuss design and development ideas, as well as important capabilities of INSIGHT 2+ that were identified during this project.
