  • Abstract
    The process of acquiring and modeling expertise involves cycles of revision and review that can take from six to twenty-four months. A description is given of Aquinas, an automated knowledge-acquisition tool that has been developed to help cut down the revise-and-review cycle time. The Aquinas system and applications are examined. The advantages of using Aquinas for rapid prototyping are discussed. Other knowledge-acquisition tools that can be used for rapid prototyping are mentioned.<>
