Abstract
The manual formalization and implementation of the expert knowledge about a class of configuration problems by the knowledge engineer is a rather time-consuming and labour-intensive job. I have therefore developed concepts for a special knowledge acquisition tool called KONFGEN-II for the domain of configuration tasks. KONFGEN-II gets as input a high-level description of the expert knowledge in a conceptual specification language tailored to configuration tasks. From a given specification, KONFGEN-II automatically generates the internal knowledge representation of production rules and constraints and compiles it into an executable expert system which can immediately be evaluated and used. KONFGEN-II is currently being implemented on the basis of the distributed production system MAGSY [10] and the constraint satisfaction system YACSS [5].
