Spills problem and applied Artificial Intelligence

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5179156
We describe an Artificial Intelligence program designed for assisting in the location, assessment, and cleanup of hazardous spills and for the training of spills personnel who must deal with these matters. Because the program is of a type which may be unfamiliar to the reader, we devote some space to a discussion of the general attributes of the class of Artificial Intelligence programs known as Expert Systems and still more to a description of the system we employ, Carnegie-Mellon's OPS5. We illustrate our discussion with a variety of rules, some taken directly from the SPILLS program.
