A firm of wine importers relies heavily on its chief wine expert, who is skilled at selecting wines that are destined to be popular, on the basis of their taste, colour, scent etc. She is soon to retire. It is proposed to build an expert system that will enable any of several junior wine specialists to do her job.

2. What is an example of working memory?
3. What is an example of derived knowledge?
4. How would you get the knowledge for the system?
5. Do you think it will work?
6. Why and/or why not?
