ABSTRACT
An expert system for helping farmer in cultivation of white shrimp pond, particularly in water quality management, has been developed. This system can be developed to be another pond expert system, even for the more general simple classification expert system. As the early step, we begin to focus on improving system as customized expert system specific for cultivation of pond. This work is intended to reduce knowledge acquisition effort which often meet bottleneck. Customization of the system is essentially done by replacement of knowledge base. In case ponds with species other than white shrimp interested in using expert system, there is no need to build new application. Experiment results that with customizing system components such quality standard, pond element, and rule, the expert system is able to help in compliance the need of expert in other ponds.
Keywords: expert system, pond, knowledge acquisition, simple classification, customization
1. INTRODUCTION This research was initiated by development an expert system that is used to assist or even substitute expert in white shrimp pond namely Vannacues (Vannamei Cultivation Expert System) [4]. White shrimp ponds or other ponds in general are artificial environment that always require human assistance to keep the balance of its forming elements. Pond water, as habitat for living things to interact with their environment and form food chain, is unable to achieve natural control mechanism itself as well as water in the natural environments [8]. Imbalance problem in pond is caused by inharmonious ecological process of elements either chemically, physically, or biologically. Aquaculture expert is needed to provide
