I NTRODUCTION ART Enterprise : an artificial intelligence application development environment, which is the only software that has proven success in applying case-based and rules-based technology to solve critical problems. Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide

PARADIGMS ART*provides four programming paradigms:  object-oriented programming  rule-based programming  case-based reasoning  procedural programming Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide

R ULES - AND - CASE BASED REASONING TECHNOLOGY Integrates all data sources from structured databases to unstructured documents according to different business policies The integration is useful to automate the best business practices and institutional knowledge It also helps to easily modify company’s policies to make better decisions and improve customer relationship Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide

OBJECT - ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE Object-oriented architecture provides unmatched flexibility that can make the system adapt over time to meet changing technology and environment development requirements This kind of architecture simplifies software development, reduces maintenance and upgrade costs, which optimizes to use the investment for hardware and software Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide

ARTS CRIPT ARTScript lets you define functions, create objects, write rules, index cases, display dialog boxes and access databases. Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide

SPECIALITY The special virtue of ARTScript, in particular, is that it is very easy to work with. If you have a bug in a function, for instance, fix the bug, recompile the function definition, and test it immediately. There is no need to go through a lengthy compiling and re-linking process. This convenience makes ARTScript a powerful tool for rapid prototyping. Source : Art Enterprise Software User Guide
