The development and execution of expert systems on the popular IBM personal computers (PC's) and compatibles are proliferating rapidly. At least eight or ten comprehensive and powerful expert system development tools software packages are now commercially available for IBM PC's. Also, in this dynamic and highly competitive environment, vendors are working continuously to expand and improve the features and capabilities of their expert system tools products. Therefore, the selection of the most suitable expert system tools for a particular application using IBM PC's must properly address many relevant, rapidly changing factors, and a framework for the selection is needed. This paper provides the needed framework for comparing the various features of the expert system tools for IBM PC's. Technical aspects are considered, such as the hardware configuration required, procedures for generating the knowledge base, knowledge representation method, type of inference engine, and user interface features. Also addressed are factors such as the price of ''run-time'' versions of an expert system, training available, and user support.
