Application of Decision Units in Knowledge Engineering

In this paper we shall present the decision units idea that, allow us to divide a set of rules into subsets – decision units. This paper gives attention to decision units in chosen problems of knowledge engineering. We present our own rule base verification method based on decision unit conception. The decision units are simple and intuitive models describing relations in rule knowledge base, being direct superstructure of a rule-base model. The unit’s usage offers the knowledge engineer’s support on the technical design and base realization level.
