Performance evaluation of rule grouping on a real-time expertsystem architecture

Uses a Markov process to model a real-time expert system architecture characterized by message passing and event-driven scheduling. The model is applied to the performance evaluation of rule grouping for real-time expert systems running on this architecture. An optimizing algorithm based on Kernighan-Lin heuristic graph partitioning for the real-time architecture is developed and a demonstration system based on the model and algorithm has been developed and tested on a portion of the advanced GPS receiver (AGR) and manned manoeuvring unit (MMU) knowledge bases     

一种自动布线方法：多级线探索法

本文介绍了一种在微机上实现的印制板自动布线方法──多级线探索法及其编程方法。这种方法是基于完备布线算法的概念，通过分析李氏算法和传统线探索法的不足之处而得到的。虽然它也是一种线探索法，但有较传统线探索法更强的探索能力，不需要结合李氏算法而能单独完成布线任务，是一种较理想的算法，通过实验获得了较为满意的效果。     

Fuzzy controller design by using neural network techniques

This paper investigates the relationship between the piecewise linear fuzzy controller (PLFC), in which the membership functions for fuzzy variables and the associated inference rules are all in piecewise linear forms, and a Gaussian potential function network based controller (GPFNC), in which the network output is a weighted summation of hidden responses from a series of Gaussian potential function units (GPFU's). Systematic procedures are proposed for transformation from a PLFC to its GPFNC counterpart, and vice versa. Based on these transformation principles, a series of systematic and feasible steps is presented for the design of an optimized PLFC (PLFC*) by using neural network techniques. In the design procedures, the simplified PLFC is used as the initial controller structure, then a GPFNC, which gives the approximate control response to the initially given PLFC, is found for further optimization. A neutralization process is used to demonstrate the feasibility and the potential applicability of these intelligent controllers on the regulation of highly nonlinear chemical processes

Energy use in controlled temperature marine aquaculture

Temperature control offers benefits in land‐based marine aquaculture: stock growth rates may be enhanced by heating in winter; mortality rates in summer may be reduced by cooling. However, if the plant is not well designed, temperature control may create very large energy demands. This paper describes the application of temperature control in abalone aquaculture in New Zealand, with a focus on energy considerations in plant design. An abalone farm using a semi‐closed water conditioning system is used as a case study for which an energy model, based on a heat pump system, is developed. The model is used to determine the impact of plant design and tank conditions on the economics of the operation. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A random switching method for HPWM full-bridge inverter

To overcome the problem of unequal switching loss in power switches, in conventional hybrid pulse width modulation (HPWM) full-bridge inverters, a random switching method for HPWM full-bridge inverters is proposed. The proposed method equalizes switching losses of the four switches, while also providing good output performance
