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.

CANSEARCH: An expert systems approach to document retrieval

TL;DR: In this paper, a computerized intermediary system is proposed to facilitate online document retrieval from large-scale data bases directly by users of the retrieved information, which does not require the user to be knowledgeable or undergo any training in the use of the underlying retrieval system.

Design as exploring constraints

Mark D. Gross
TL;DR: A theory of designing is proposed, developed, and illustrated with examples from the domain of physical form, a computational environment for designing based on constraint descriptions is described, and how the constraint explorer might be used in connection with a simple space- planning problem.

Explicit representations of problem-solving strategies to support knowledge acquisition

TL;DR: Evidence is provided supporting the need for explicit representations in building knowledge-based systems by representing problem-solving knowledge explicitly and deriving from the current knowledge base the knowledge gaps that must be resolved by the user during KA.

Initial assessment of architectures for production systems

TL;DR: The preliminary results indicate that the most attractive architecture for production systems is a machine containing a small number of very simple and very fast processors.

Production system conflict resolution strategies1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the role of conflict resolution in providing support for production systems designed to function and grow in environments that make large numbers of different, sometimes competing, and sometimes unexpected demands.
