Abstract

The characteristics of the ESPLEX system which may be defined as a “rule and conceptual based model” are illustrated, together with the possibilities for its utilization, its similarities with other existing projects, and the requisites of the knowledge representation language.The methodology and the theoretical propositions that have led to the definition of the representation language are therefore explained. The characteristics of the system which manages the knowledge base are also described and a brief comment is made regarding future development.
