            Abstract : 
Proposes a set of heuristic algorithms for the solutions of the general maximum independent set problem. These include the commonsense heuristic algorithm, the first-ratio heuristic algorithm, the higher-order ratio heuristic algorithm, the peak heuristic algorithm, and the grouping heuristic algorithm. It is also shown how these algorithms may be used to improve the efficiency of expert system design.<>
