Abstract

Fish disease and health management is becoming a key barrier and major problem that currently limits expanded production and sustainable development of aquaculture and bring out food-safety issues. There has been a marked growth of interest in developing expert system to aid fish disease/health management. The literature shows that a few have been used to any extent due to the lack of deep user requirement analysis and long-term support and maintenance. This paper presents the effort to apply evolutionary prototyping model in developing an intelligent decision support system for fish disease/health management. The paper describes in detail about the four evolution stages as the system development experienced, every stage including the system design and implementation, feedback and requirement from system evaluation, and system redevelopment until a blown system. At last the evolution process is concluded from three directions. The evolutionary prototyping benefits and challenges experienced during the development and promotion are also discussed from the project management perceptive.
