Abstract
This paper gives a survey of different categories of knowledge-based systems or expert systems, respectively, for supporting modelling and simulation of system dynamics in discrete systems. At first, actual requirements concerning support of users in model construction and goal-directed, efficient application of models are summarized. Regarding similarities existing between expert systems and simulation models with respect to their intended purpose, principal approaches for the combined and adjusted application of expert system and simulation techniques are discussed in this paper. As a result, knowledge-based modelling and simulation environments are classified regarding their taxonomy and their intended applicability. Some examples for practical applications of expert systems as classification and advisory systems for user supporting tools in the modelling process are finally presented.
