Abstract :
An intelligent support system, designed to make the development of protocols and communication software easy and user-friendly, is described. The support system is outlined and its accessories (the knowledge-based specification editor, the validation expert system, the software generation expert system, the conformance-testing expert system, and the protocol-conversion expert system) are described in detail. Artificial intelligence techniques are used in the design of each component of the support system. An example which demonstrates the functions of each component in the support system is given
