Consulting is goal oriented [8]

What happens when you turn the key in the ignition to try to start the car?
It turns over OK, but it just won't start.
The objective in calling your mechanic is to get a very specific answer to a very specific question. You aren't interested in learning how a fuel injection system works or how to rebuild a starter -- even though your expert would be quite capable of providing this information. The objective of the consultation represents a goal in expert system terminology, and there can be one or many goals to be satisfied during a consultation with a human expert or a computer-based expert system.
