Abstract The paper considers the use of the graphical formalism of event trees when creating prototypes of knowledge bases for intelligent systems. Here, the knowledge is represented in a declarative form as logical rules describing the relationship between external signs of a malfunction, possible causes, and operations for their localization and elimination. The previously developed technology of prototyping the rule-based expert systems, implementing the principles of visual programming and model transformations, is used as a methodological basis. Its application is described in the creation of knowledge bases for aviation diagnostics, including the main models and stages, an example is given. Algorithms and software were developed in the form of a specialized event tree editor and an extension module for Personal Knowledge Base Designer.
