We describe the design of a knowledge base and associated inference mechanism (ATHENA) for the expen system Parallel (If) ELLPACK. The objective of ATHENA is to provide combinations of grids. methods and machines which best meet a user's specified performance requirements for accuracy, E. and response time, T. The knowledge base contains a large database of performance data and the inference mechanism is based on performance profiles derived from this database. The system can acquire new performance data silently during its usage and automatically update its performance profiles. It can also produce new performance data separately using either problems posed by expens or collected from users. ATHENA: A KNOWLEDGE BASE SYSTEM FOR IIELLPACK C.E. Houstis, E.N. Houstis, M.
