Company History

Epistemics was founded in 1993 by Professor Nigel Shadbolt and Steve Swallow with the intention of bringing to market commercially viable tools and methods for knowledge engineering.

1993-1997

In the years leading up to 1997, Epistemics was involved in three main activities:

1. The development of knowledge-based systems on military projects for the Royal Air Force and Royal Navy
2. The development of training and simulation systems
3. The development of PCPACK v2 to become a commercially available product

Since 1997

From 1997, Epistemics have continued the military work and the development of PCPACK. In addition, expansion has taken place into two new areas:

1. Knowledge Management, mainly by training and supporting customer's own knowledge engineers
2. Research projects, primarily within knowledge engineering
