  • Abstract
    A description is presented of a joint project to develop a machine diagnostic expert system, called high vacuum evaporator diagnostics (XBAK). It is used for problem diagnosis in sophisticated manufacturing equipment used in microchip fabrication. A discussion is presented of a human diagnostician´s behavior observed during the knowledge acquisition sessions, and the behavioral attributes that have been built into XBAK based on these observations. Finally, an assessment is made of the success of XBAK, and the two major limitations suffered by most current expert systems are identified
