Application Of Expert System

ABSTRACT

Computers have been in existence for some time. Personal computers have emerged in the early eighties and changed substantially the way corporations perform their functions. Large quantity of application software, tools making the computer more useful, have been developed over the years. Different classes that describe application software, such as "Spreadsheets", "Word Processors" and "Data Bases", are now as much a part of our vocabulary as "fax" and "cellular phone" machines. 

Application software has been traditionally rated as “dumb.” This attribute is to be contrasted with software with intelligence that starts to appear in many places.

While this differentiation is sometimes not obvious an entire category of more intelligent pieces of software is appearing. Among these we find often mentioned expert systems and intelligent agents.
