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.

A tool for developing interactive configuration applications

TL;DR: The idea is that a configuration system could be more of a tool, assisting in the task of configuration, than a “black box” automatically producing configurations directly from requirements.

An expert system approach in process planning current development and its future

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the findings of a survey conducted for the state of the art for expert-system-based automated process planning systems and make recommendations for possible future directions in the research of a more efficient computer-aided process planning (CAPP) module.

Knowledge-based configuration of computer systems using hierarchical partial choice

TL;DR: A novel inference scheme is introduced which is called hierarchical partial choice and which efficiently generates configurations from a knowledge base of structural descriptions of computer components that efficiently generates solutions, often with little backtracking.
Proceedings Article

Extracting knowledge from expert systems

TL;DR: This paper proposes a few questions that it might be worth asking and shows how answers to those questions could begin to give understanding of why knowledge based systems work or of the limits of their usefulness.

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.
