Expert System for Predicting Cadmium Pollution

Expert System for predicting cadmium (Cd) pollution was developed using Visual Basic incorporated with CLIPS. The information was obtained from a primary data to develop this expert system. Sediment was used as an indicator of Cd pollution because of it's permanency compared to water itself...
