Chris:
Bayes On Line (BOL) is Bayesian network product layered on G2. G2 is a rapid
prototyping tool (from Gensym corporation
http://www.gensym.com/products/core_products.htm) that is written in LISP
and translated to C. BOL's object structure is built within G2. Evaluation
of the networks is either done in G2 or in an external process that is
remotely connected to G2 for fast performance. You can use the GUI to build
and modify networks manually. You may also use G2's object oriented
language to build up the rest of your application and utilize the BOL API to
construct and modify Bayes nets, or utilize the BOL object structure in
defining the application objects, extending the methods in the BOL API, and
make the Bayesian networks a more intimate part of your application. The
BOL API may be also be called from processes that are external to G2 via
remote procedure calls.
