title: Obligations of the expert system builder: meeting the needs of the user.
abstract: Builders of expert systems have generally accepted the principle that computer software should not be subject to government regulation if health care practitioners can be expected to interpret and apply the systems intelligently. The purpose of this paper is to identify the information that builders must make available to permit health care practitioners to exercise their clinical judgment in interpreting and applying the output of computing systems.
