        Two leading authorities in knowledge-based systems (KBSs) have produced an excellent survey of the technology, successes, and failures of KBS. B ased on their experience and the survey, they discuss the essential value of knowledge processing; industrial and commercial applications, with real-world examples; key trends in applications of KBS technology and experience; perceived failures, difficulties, and disappointments; and the state-of-the-art technology components. The main conclusions of the paper include that KBS has attained a permanent and secure role in industry; KBSs are integrated with other information technology; and KBS has had a rapid and wide impact and diffusion in the world economy. The paper is easy to read and provides valuable insights on the successes and failures of KBS technology, and identifies short-term and long-term needs for future improvements in the technology. I strongly recommend this paper for virtually anyone who wants to understand the current status of KBS technology.
