Expert systems have been developed for a wide variety of problems in many different fields. These applications, however, have mostly been limited to implementations which are single-user, single-session systems. That is, a single user poses a question to the expert system and, over the course of that continuous session, an answer is provided. As expert systems tackle larger real-world problems situations have been encountered in which activities extend over long periods of time and involve many people in the process. This has led to the emergence of a new class of expert systems that differ significantly from those developed heretofore: the multi-user expert system. In constructing an expert system of this type, there are many unique difficulties. There problems are addressed in the context of a multi-user expert system supporting the Analytical Integration of Spacelab Payloads. The approach taken in this research was to build a prototype multi-user expert system to serve as a testbed for investigating the effect of a multiple-user requirement on the design and operation of an expert system.
