Expert systems design

The expert system design includes the ability to change the time period of measurement and algorithm processing in individual cases. Thus, in effect, the system can "focus attention" to a specific area of the process plant, and put all associated measurements and rules for that area on frequent scan. This can be done under control of the LISP program. Thus, for example ...

An example of another approach is DEREK, a pnblicly available expert system designed to assist chemists and toxicologists in predicting toxicological hazards based on analysis of chemical strnctnre (see table 9.1). DEREK differs from other compnter methods for toxicity prediction in that it makes qnalitative rather than qnantitative predictions and does not rely on algebraic or statistical relationships.

Dynamic behavior and live data. Many problems have a real-time aspect, including dynamic knowledge in differential equation form, such as equations of motion. Live data may be needed for the eventual deployment, and data access and real-time processing may be important. A framework which includes these real-time considerations in the expert system design is required. The framework allows simulation to provide real-time values for prototyping and development, to be supplanted by sensor-based data at installation. Data servers provide interfaces to other systems with a minimum of user work, so the prototype can become the actual application.
