Abstract(in English) This paper discusses the design and implementation of a novel system performance improvement Expert System (ES) with a Qualitative inference engine. The motive for using Qualitative Reasoning is to overcome the computational complexity posed by the triple-input-triple-output contexts interactions in the Multi-Context Map (MCM) queuing network which models the system. The ES analyses the GPSS simulation data of system performance, consults the MCM knowledge base of the system, and with its inference engine driven by qualitative rules draws the parameter-tuning plan to resolve bottlenecks. The ES has been successfully applied in improving a typical benchmarking system in Collaboration Engineering.
