Rule Based System Architecture

• 
• This is the runtime architecture
• The user starts the system and interacts with it via the user interface.
• This is the command prompt in Clips.
• The engine is the part of the program that actually does stuff.
• It says, run the system, that is, look at working memory, see what rules fire, and apply them.
• You'll have the same inference engine for each rule base.
• The knowledge base is the rules and the working memory.
• The rules will remain the same for different runs.
• WM changes for each run and during the run.
