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.

On the limits of expert systems and engineering models in process control

TL;DR: An analysis of the mental operations and cognitive requirements needed for supervisory control and system engineering models in dynamic process control find expert systems seem to be very valuable tools for augmenting human decision making in process control, if the interaction problem can be solved.

Combining Heuristics for Configuration Problems Using Answer Set Programming

TL;DR: This paper shows how to formulate a combined configuration problem in Answer Set Programming (ASP) and to solve it using heuristics a la hclasp and presents a novel method for heuristic generation based on a combination of greedy search with ASP that allows to improve the performance of an ASP solver.

A framework for networked knowledge-based systems

TL;DR: A conceptual framework for building a network of knowledge-based systems (KBS) to fully utilize the benefits of these systems within complex decision-making environments is proposed and draws on concepts from decision-support systems and expert systems.
