Abstract

In this paper, approaches for dealing with uncertainty as implemented in two specific expert system tools are analysed with the aim of comparing the theories that underly the two approaches. The comparison undertaken shows that not only are their many conceptual problems that require consideration and understanding before selecting an expert system tool, but also the uncertainty techniques as implemented in two specific tools do not follow strictly the theories on which they are based. © 1991.
