The difficulties associated with the committal of human expert knowledge to computers for the development of more effective knowledge-based systems have raised the possibility of mimicking the process of reasoning from previous experiences. Experts are known to make proficient decisions based more upon analogy wiith similar events and situations than the kind of sequential mechanisms used in many algorithmic approaches. For many years, both law and business schools have used cases as the foundation for knowledge in their respective disciplines. Computer reasoning by analogy, a technique known as Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) has met with tangible success in such diverse human decision-making applications as banking, autoclave loading, tactical decision-making, and foreign trade negotiations. Failure analysts and corrosion engineers also reason by analogy when faced with new situations or problems. The CBR approach is particularly valuable in cases containing ill-structured problems, uncertainty, ambiguity, and missing data. Dynamic environments can also be tackled, or when there are shifting, ill-defined and competing objectives. Cases where there are action feedback loops, multiple human involvement, and multiple and potentially changing organizational goals and norms can also be tackled. This paper describes a method of indexing case histories for use in a case-based reasoning system in support of failure analysis. Keywords: Case Based Reasoning, informaticm processing, failure analysis, knowledge reuse, knowledge-based systems
