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.

Parallelism in production systems: the sources and the unexpected speed up

TL;DR: This paper represents an initial attempt to identify the various sources of parallelism in production system programs and to characterize them, that is, to determine the potential speed-up offered by each source and the overheads associated with it.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selection of knowledge acquisition techniques based upon the problem domain characteristics of production and operations management expert systems

TL;DR: A mapping between existing empirical studies and a generic taxonomy of expert system problem domains is presented and how the empirical work can be used to provide guidance to developers of expert systems in the field of P/OM is presented.

CSRL: A language for expert systems for diagnosis

TL;DR: CSRL is a language for representing the concepts of a diagnostic hierarchy and for implementing the establish-refine process, and the concept of a family of languages in which different languages for diagnosis are designed for different kinds of end users is introduced.

Extending a knowledge-based system to deal with ad hoc constraints

TL;DR: Rules are added to R1 that can now accept as input commands that specify how particular components are to be configured Whenever one of the commands becomes relevant, these rules take control, extend the configuration in the direction indicated by the command, and then step aside, allowing Rt's ordinary-case configuration rules to regain control.

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.
