Combining artificial intelligence concepts with traditional simula tion methodologies yields a powerful design support tool known as knowledge based simulation. This approach turns a descrip tive simulation tool into a prescriptive tool, one which recom mends specific goals. Much work in the area of general goal pro cessing and explanation of recommendations remains to be done.
