Purpose: The goal of this work was development of the computer aided system for selection of technological parameters for making the metallographic microsections for the microscopic examinations. Design/methodology/approach: Prolog language - the Artificial Intelligence tool was employed in the project, and the Logic Programming Associate's VisiRule system, which was used for saving the knowledge base - rules pertaining the objects and their relationships. These tools were used to develop the expert system for selection of the recommended technology for the metallographic microsections. Findings: Knowledge acquisition process was carried out to cover recommendations of manufacturers of the equipment for metallographic microsections. Formulation of the pertinent knowledge in the LPA-Prolog VisiRule tool is presented along with the results of technology instruction sheet presentation. Research limitations/implications: The expert system for selection of parameters for making the metallographic microsections is currently at the testing and development stage. Originality/value: Making the metallographic microsections is a time consuming task, sometimes material for examination is scarce, so any system that ensures good quality of microsections is very valuable. The system under development offers the best advice to anybody striving to obtain the best quality of the specimens.
