R1: a rule-based configurer of computer systems

John McDermott
- 01 Sep 1982 - 
- Vol. 19, Iss: 1, pp 39-88
TLDR
R1 is a program that configures VAX-11/780 computer systems and uses Match as its principal problem solving method; it has sufficient knowledge of the configuration domain and of the peculiarities of the various configuration constraints that at each step in the configuration process, it simply recognizes what to do.

Automatic model generation for troubleshooting

TL;DR: A methodology for building such applications for the troubleshooting of processes is described through an actual example taken from the machining domain.

A constraint-based framework for configuration

TL;DR: This thesis is addressing the two main issues raised by a configuration task: modeling the problem and solving it efficiently, and introducing Composite Constraints Satisfaction Problems, a new, nonstandard class of problems which extends the classic Constraint Satisfaction paradigm.

Automated Design of Computer Clusters

TL;DR: This work proposes a method of comprehensive design space exploration for computer clusters built with mass-produced, off-the-shelf components, paving the way to a future CAD system with decision support capabilities.

Method-Specific Knowledge Compilation: Towards Practical Design Support Systems

TL;DR: An experiment in which a legacy knowledge system called Interactive Kritik is integrated with an ORACLE database using IDI as the communication tool indicates the computational feasibility of method-specific data-to-knowledge compilation, but also raises additional research issues.
