This version became known as Heuristic-DENDRAL. In other words, you've run up against the limits of our current knowledge; to make any further progress is going to take an innovation that's not yet a part of our scientific lexicon. In addition to the actual growth of science and scientific activity, there has been much effort to show that such progress benefits the economy through a line of investigation tying basic research to patents production. Progress and its problems: Toward a theory of scientific growth. It used heuristic search to determine solutions for the chemical structures responsible for the spectra, and was the first application of AI to a problem of scientific reasoning.
