Abstract :
The network version of question-answer processor has been developed and tested to be applied in the field of computer-aided design. The concept of "question" is understood and defined as a mismatch between the potential experience, necessary to implement a project, and the real applied experience. Existing mismatch (question) works as an active cause for decision-making control. Special question-answer protocols are used for work with "cause-questions". The relevant answer to the "cause-question" is a result of question processing, which controls design process and provides it with suitable information. The network version is completed according to the component approach. The software has a special mechanism reflecting the designers group structure. It is easy to install and set, it has a clear, simple and logic interactive interface.
