This paper outlines the development of a knowledgebased expert system for diagnosing machine tool failures. The complexity of machine tool failures and the trouble shooting procedures are deployed. The diagnostic knowledge is acquired from analysis of the troubleshooting and repair reports as well as from interviews with diagnosis engineers. The knowledge base is built using the object oriented...

Computer programs are playing key role in Medicine not only in Medical Information Systems but also in Medical Diagnosis and Surgery. Artificial Intelligence in Medicine particularly Expert Systems are used for diagnosis and robotics are used in surgery. The Robotics will assist the surgeon in Surgery. The Medical Expert Systems will assist the physician in Diagnosis. The information available ...

Understanding and using cost accounting is a key to success in any type of organization, because it helps managers to collect important data about the costs assigned to products, services and customers and use it for planning and control function. This paper discusses development and application of an expert system for reasonable decision making and continuous processes improvement. The system ...

Within this paper the following research results are presented. A combination of minimal entropy coding and neural network technique is proposed for low-priced and robust expert system building A "thesis of tractability"' describing the size and complexity of ordinary human expertise when using the above-mentioned methods in knowledge engineering is given. Developmental and maintenance costs of...

This work shows expert system of symmetrical single magnetic lens used in focused ion beam optical system. Java expert system shell(JESS) programming is proposed to build the intelligent agent "MOPTION"for getting an optimum magnetic flux density , and calculate the ion optical trajectory. The combination of such rule based engine and SIMION 8.1 has configured the reconstruction process and com...

Expert Systems (ES), a promising branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI), have achieved considerable success in recent years. This area of AI has concentrated on the construction of high-performance programs in specialized professional domains. Building a new expert system is a major investment. Choosing the right expert system building tool or shell is critical to the success and failure of suc...

Lawrence O. Hall Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering, ENB 118 University of South Florida Tampa, Fl. 33620 [email protected] Abstract A fuzzy expert system must do rule chaining differently than a non-fuzzy expert system. In particular, any rule that can fire with a particular linguistic variable in its consequent must fire before any rule whose antecedent conditions depend upon the resul...

The rapid growth in size and complexity of distributed systems and the use of heterogeneous components require eeective tools to manage their resources. Expert system technology possesses the potential to manage such large and complex systems based on heuristic knowledge in near real time. This paper presents a general approach to designing an expert system for the management of performance of ...

The paper describes JessGUI, a graphical user interface developed on top of the Jess expert system shell. The central idea of the JessGUI project was to make building, revising, updating, and testing Jess-based expert systems easier, more flexible, and more user friendly. There are many other expert system building tools providing a rich and comfortable integrated development environment to exp...

Inspector, an expert system, was implemented to assist foreign exchange management in the monitoring of trader activity and the compliance of risk management policies. The knowledge of senior foreign exchange managers, traders, controllers, and auditors is contained in an expert system shell, Nexpert Object. The foreign exchange deals from all Manufacturer's Hanover Trust (MHT) branches are rec...
