Computer language

A special computer language (Occam) is needed to enable transputers to be programmed in this cooperative mode, yielding true parallel processing of information with all its advantages in speed.

Case-based reasoning is very much dependent on the structure and content of its cases and their representation because case retrieval involves identifying those features in the problem that best match those in the case base. The dynamic addition of new cases means that CBR is intrinsically a learning methodology such that the performance of an expert system based on this approach will improve with time [9]. Systems may be developed with conventional computer languages or shells [7]. 

Rules seemingly have the same format as IF.. THEN.. statements in any other conventional computer language. The major difference is that the latter statements are constructed to be executed sequentially and always in the same order, whereas expert system rules are meant as little independent pieces of knowledge. It is the task of the inference engine to recognize the applicable rules. This may be different in different situations. There is no preset order in which the rules must be executed. Clarity of the rule base is an essential characteristic because it must be possible to control and follow the system on reasoning errors. The structuring of rules into rule sets favours comprehensibility and allows a more efficient consultation of the system. Because of the natural resemblance to real expertise, rule-based expert systems are the most popular. Many of the earlier developed systems are pure rule-based systems.

The next thing that is needed is a program that keeps track of all the process and utility streams, and determines the order in which the individual equipment calculations will be performed. This is sometimes referred to as the executive program. The user of this system has merely to put into computer language the flow diagram, which identifies the units (areas of heat exchangers, number of trays in a distillation column) and their interrelations, and to list the operating characteristics of each unit (the pressures, temperatures, exit compositions), the input variables to the plant...

An excellent resource for learning about efficient numerical methods for optimization (and many other problems) is W. H. Press, S. A. Teukolsky, W. T. Vetterling, and B. P. Flannery, Numerical Recipes in C++ The Art of Scientific Computing, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK, 2002. Multiple editions of this book are available with equivalent information in other computing languages. 

A scientist who writes programs in FORTRAN or some similar, scientifically oriented computer language, may be unaware of the potential use of computers to solve computational, but not necessarily numeric, problems which might arise in his research.
