Abstract :
A status report is given on Esprit Project p2615: intelligent training systems in industrial environment (ITSIE). This project, started in March 1990, aims to: investigate intelligent training systems based on ITS concepts; develop a set of generic tools for domain knowledge, tutoring and user modelling; develop a generic architecture and associated communication protocols for ITSIE; establish a methodology for matching training objectives to generic solutions; validate the tools and methodology through two realistic demonstrators. The two demonstrators of the project are complementary with respect to the training and the domains. They are: training of electrical distribution network personnel in the correct online maintenance procedures and training of operators of a fossil-fuel power station
