Multi paradigm expert system architecture based upon the inverse design concept
T. Hirano, T. Yamada · 2003
The architecture consists of an inference engine, an analysis engine, a graphic engine, and a database management system. A multiparadigm expert-system architecture based on the inverse design concept is proposed. The iterative method for the solution of inverse problems, which is interpreted as a general design process, is implemented in a Prolog environment. This environment is used as a kernel of the architecture, which connects symbolic and numerical computation and realizes the automation of the design process. Functionally gradient material (FGM) design is considered as an example.>
