To improve the effluent quality in accordance with the European and Romanian technical normative, in Ploieşti there will be built a new wastewater treatment plant with both the mechanical and biological steps, including the sludge treatment with an improved technology in pollutants’ removal. In literature, there are presented expert systems developed for wastewater treatment domain, being outli...

There exist various tools for knowledge representation and modelling in artificial intelligence. We have designed and built a software tool called McESE (McMaster Expert System Environment) that comprises three such represen tations: pro duction systems, n eural nets, an d Petri nets. T he first two tools are alm ost com plemen tary in their strengths and weaknesses: neural nets are very good i...

An extension of the expert system shell HUGIN to include continuous variables, in the form of linear additive normally distributed variables, is presented. The theoretical foundation of the method was developed by Lauritzen (1992), whereas this report primarily focus on implementation aspects. The approach has several advantages over purely discrete systems: It enables a more natural model of t...

We describe extensions made to the knowledge refinement tool KRUST with the aim of developing a generic refinement tool, applicable to a variety of expert system shells. In particular, we describe the PFES shell and the tablet formulation application TFS written in PFES, discuss some of the differences between TFS and other systems, and show how we have extended KRUST in order to apply it to TFS.

A computer aided design (CAD) by using optimization methods for designing magnetic lens, by mixing the dynamic programming procedure and artificial intelligence technique. CADION package has been designed and written in Java expert system shell ( JESS 6.1 ) and Visual Basic 6 ( VB6 ) for optimizing and analyzing full calculation processes. The optimized axial magnetic flux density according to ...

For efficient data integration of all data the XML based platform myBSMLStudio2003 is discussed and developed here. It integrates XQuery capabilities, automatic scripting updates for sequence annotation and a JESS expert system shell for functional annotation. In the context of genome annotation platforms in place (GenDB, PEDANT) these different tools and approaches presented here allow improve...

Introduction Maverick is a modern hierarchical netlist extractor, providing extraordinary effi ciency as well as comprehensive features and ease of use. It runs on PC under Microsoft Windows NT providing unique productivity in processing of virtually any size VLSI/ULSI designs. The extractor is fully integrated with state-of-the-art Expert Layout Editor, and represents important part of its ver...

TEST (Troubleshooting Expert System. Tool) is an application shell that provides a domain-Independent diagnostic problem solver to ether with a library of schematic prototypes. TE& fills a design nrche halfway between rule-based and causal-model approaches. This approach has resulted in a design that meets several functional requirements for an effective Voubleshootin a shelt. Most critically, ...

introduction: studies have indicated a global high prevalence of hospital malnutrition on admission and during hospitalization. clinical nutritional risk screen (cnrs) is a way to identify malnutrition and manage nutritional interventions. several traditional and non-computer based tools have been suggested for screening nutritional risk levels. the present study was an attempt to employ a comp...

The Disciple Learning Agent Shell is a tool for developing intelligent agents where an expert teaches the agent how to perform domain-specific tasks in a way that resembles the way the expert would teach an apprentice, by giving the agent examples and explanations as well as by supervising and correcting its behavior. Disciple can be used by educators to build educational agents that will assis...
