OBS

The first expert system building tool. EMYCIN was derived from the expert system MYCIN. After the developers of MYCIN completed that system they decided that they could remove the specific medical knowledge from MYCIN(hence Essential MYCIN). The resulting shell consisted of a back-chaining inference engine, a consultation driver, and several knowledge acquisition aids. This shell, or tool, could then be combined with another knowledge base to create a new expert system.
