Notes:
An expert system (LABGEN) is presented for decision support in analytical laboratories by means of digital simulation. In an interactive manner, LABGEN constructs simulation models of laboratory organizations. It makes use of a database of model fragments and applies rules in order to prevent the user providing redundant information and to prevent inconsistent models being constructed. The models are written in the dedicated simulation language SIMULA. After compilation they can be used for simulation experiments. LABGEN can be applied to a wide range of laboratory organizations. An example of the application of LABGEN is presented.
