SACON advises engmeers _m the use of a large, general-purpose structural analysis program. The structure of the knowledge base, mcludlng the . major concepts used and Inferences drawn by the consultant, Is presented. We ~onclude by mak.ang some observations In light of this application about the EMYCIN system as a representational vehicle.
