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.

Interaction-based invention: designing novel devices from first principles

TL;DR: It is proposed that an appropriate focus for design is the network of qualitative interactions between quantities, (called an interaction topology), used by a device to achieve its desired behavior.

Rule-based versus structure-based models for explaining and generating expert behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a model constructor that can be used to synthesize models that explain and generate expert behavior in the problem domain of business resource planning, where reasoning is based on models that evolve in response to changing external conditions or internal policies.
