We design a flood control support environment, which is composed of the Inference System (IS) and the Procedural Knowledge System (PIS). PKS deals with problems which can be solved mathematically, while IS takes charge of problems which needs a knowledge-based approach. IS is composed of self-contained knowledge-based systems, each of which is an expert system to deal with a partial issue of flood control problems. Knowledge-based systems are classified into two types according to the problem type to be treated: a system which has a deterministic inference process based on a production system and one with a fuzzy inference process.
