Journal ArticleDOI
A fundamental and theoretical framework for an intelligent CAD system
TL;DR: A design base language which is built upon logic programming and object-oriented programming paradigm is proposed and a formulation is given for how a designer's apprentice (or a design workbench) can be established.
Journal ArticleDOI
The power of physical representations
Varol Akman,P. J. W. ten Hagen +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that to make predictions about the physical world, programs should use abstract entities, principles, and laws of physics for representation and reasoning.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Framework for a Knowledge-Based System for Risk Management in Concurrent Engineering:
TL;DR: This approach, known as the "MEthodology for Knowledge Engineering for Concurrent Engineering" (MEKECE) is a dedicated application of knowledge engineering methodologies to concurrent engineering that involves a combination of case based reasoning and expert systems approaches aimed at managing risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Negotiation Platform for Cooperating Multi-agent Systems
TL;DR: A system for cooperating intelligent agents which openly supports multi- agent conflict detection and resolution, based on the insights that each agent has its own conflict knowledge which is separated from its domain-level knowledge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disciplined design of sensor systems—Part 1. Types of design
TL;DR: The advent of powerful, inexpensive, computers and ways of handling knowledge within knowledge based systems (KBS) have demonstrated that a considerable proportion of instrument design activity can be embedded to advantage and undermined the sole paradigm that only engineering design procedures having a mathematical basis of explanation are worthy.

Book ChapterDOI
A framework for representing knowledge
TL;DR: The enormous problem of the volume of background common sense knowledge required to understand even very simple natural language texts is discussed and it is suggested that networks of frames are a reasonable approach to represent such knowledge.
Book
An Introduction to Modal Logic
Max J. Cresswell,G. E. Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: This long-awaited book replaces Hughes and Cresswell's two classic studies of modal logic with all the new developments that have taken place since 1968 in both modal propositional logic and modal predicate logic, without sacrificing clarity of exposition and approachability.
Journal ArticleDOI
A truth maintenance system
TL;DR: The need of problem solvers to choose between alternative systems of beliefs is stressed, and a mechanism by which a problem solver can employ rules guiding choices of what to believe, what to want, and what to do is outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
A qualitative physics based on confluences
Johan de Kleer,John Seely Brown +1 more
TL;DR: A fairly encompassing account of qualitative physics, which introduces causality as an ontological commitment for explaining how devices behave, and presents algorithms for determining the behavior of a composite device from the generic behavior of its components.
