Abstract
A bridge theory including a mathematical expression for the process of catalysis is proposed. A catalytic reaction can be expressed as \\rea ctant matrix\\ x \\bridge matrix\\ = \\product matrix\\. The physicoch emical bases of computer-aided molecular design of catalysts are discu ssed. Five variations on both structure and mechanism are identified a s important in the process of catalyst design. An expert system of mol ecular design of catalysts (ESMDC) including a knowledge base and a re asoning scheme has been developed and is described.
