Design of microprocessor-based systems: a knowledge-based approach
R.S. Mitra, M. Sirish Kumar, A. Basu · IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics · 1994
The widespread use of microprocessors in industrial applications such as process control, data logging, monitoring, etc., demand that the design of such systems be automated. Algorithmic methods are inadequate for this task, as knowledge from several sources need to be combined to produce the resulting design. In this paper the authors present a knowledge-based approach to the design of such systems, which includes the design of the hardware configuration as well as the application software. The knowledge requirements and the functional modules of the design task are elicited, and practical designs are demonstrated.>
