Abstract The following design principles are being used in an ongoing project to realize an integrated family of rule based systems that can be easily used separately or together in different combinations to solve problems common to many different disciplines. Some essential features of this family are: (1) Individual members can be used in the normal way as user-friendly rule based systems or they can be transparently invoked by other user-friendly rule based systems without interrogating users. (2) The knowledge (or rule) bases of key members do not mimic the perceived mode of human thought; therefore, they can predict events that cannot be predicted by the state-of-the-art alone. (3) The Law of Conservation of Mass/Energy is used to detect and correct computational errors.
