This graphic expert system shell was designed to allow users to enter information about a fossil in pictorial form: On the basis of this information, the system selects a best-match set of fossils. By computerizing knowledge elicitation and entry into the system, it was possible to reduce development time and cost. As a result, the system is cost effective as well as powerful, flexible, and easy to use.
