When there is one way to do something, or alternative ways are trivial variations, a manual is the simplest way to record instructions. When what needs to be done depends on gathering information regarding people, equipment, and the results of previous actions, writing all this information in an ordinary manual will overwhelm and confuse your readers.
How Does an Expert System Work?
A well-designed expert system can be used almost immediately on computer; a paper system needs only a few minutes to become familiar with the way that you turn to the various alternatives. After all, Choose Your Own Adventure books, popular with pre-teens, use a very simple form of a paper expert system, where the reader turns to a particular page depending on the choice his character makes. In the same way, a 911 worker finds the right questions to ask an emergency caller in order to give the best emergency first aid advice in the time before the ambulance arrives. This simple tool is extremely effective in practice. E-mail us at: writer@writer2001.com and let us tell you how we can solve your expert system-related problems. |
