1. A distributed computer system comprising:
- a first main system and a second main system, both to execute applications in cooperation with a human user; and
a service system to evaluate problems in the first and second main systems, the service system comprising a service module to collect problem related data from the main systems, an acquisition module to acquire knowledge representations, a knowledge module to store the knowledge representations, and an inference module for processing problem related data with knowledge representations to identify solutions, the inference module forwarding the solutions through the service module to the main systems.

Abstract
A distributed computer system has a first main system and a second main system that execute applications in cooperation with human users. A service system is an expert system to evaluate problems in the main systems. The main systems have auxiliary systems with to evaluate problems in the main systems and to escalate problem evaluation to the service system. The service system provides expertise for customers 1 and 2 that operate the main system.

9. A method for solving a problem in at least one main computer system by expert systems, comprising:
-
detecting the problem in the main system;
processing problem related data with a first set of knowledge representations of a first expert system to search for a solution;
depending on processing results, selectively solving the problem by the first expert system or forwarding the problem related data together with search results to a second expert system with a second set of knowledge representations;
processing the problem related data, the search results and the second set of knowledge representations by the second expert system to search for the solution; and
depending on processing results, selectively solving the problem by the second expert system or presenting search results of both searches and problem related data to a human. - View Dependent Claims (10)

11. An inference module with expertise functionality for evaluating problems in first and second main computer systems that execute an application, wherein the inference module is adapted to process problem related data with knowledge representations to identify solutions, the inference module characterized in that the inference module is part of a service system that receives problem related data from the first and second main systems of different versions over a network, wherein the inference module applies the knowledge representations for both main systems and distinguishes version differences of the main systems by looking up in a check lexicon.
