This paper summarizes the basic concepts of expert systems and describes some of the applications of three commercially available expert system tools. The function of the various components of the tools is explained using simple design examples. It is concluded that a tool can be employed to develop useful expert systems for real-world applications, provided factual and heuristic material is available for creating a knowledge base. Key words: artificial intelligence, knowledge-based expert systems, knowledge base, inference mechanism, expert system building tools, structural design, applications of expert system building tools.
