چکیده

1. ABSTRACT In this paper, we discuss a tool for eliciting domain knowledge (specification) of a decision support system.

Using the elicited domain knowledge, the DSS tool uses deductive reasoning techniques to make inferences and provide suggestive courses of action to support the investigatory functions of police, attorneys, or probation officials. The motivation for developing the system is manifold: 1) the activities of the officials are repetitive and their procedures mostly manual; 2)
