This report describes te design and implementation of an explanation faciltiy for the ROSIE knowledge engineering language, an expert system building environment developed at The Rand Corporation. An explanation facility is critical in the construction and utilizatoin of an expert system, since it provides the mechanisms by which the expert system can explain its performance. These mechanisms typically show the user (1) why and how the expert system reached a given conclusion, (2) why the system asked for particular information, (3) how rules and data got added to the knowledge base, (4) what is the purpose of a rule or rulest, and (5) why the use of a rule is justified.
