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.

Solving fixed configuration problems with genetic search

TL;DR: It was discovered that encoding catalogs without any regard to part features did not reduce the effectiveness of the genetic-search approach, and the performance of genetic search also compares favorably with branch and bound.
