Lines: 14 Approved: shell@uklirb.uucp Posted-Date: Sun Aug 13 15:23:30 GMT 1989 I have an application where multiple users need to access multiple knowledge bases and the load time of any knowledge base has to be fast (<10 secs or so). I am leaning towards a LAN implementation, with runtime shells running on the nodes and a file server to hold the knowledge bases. I would be interested in hearing anyone's experience with this type of setup. What expert system shell? What Network Operating System? In fact, I would like to hear any discussion at all on this type of application. --- Thomas R.
