The design approach to DAI system eased on software engineering
Wei Baogang, Huacan He, Liu Yonghuai, Liu Li · 2002
As more challenging applications are automated, cooperative problem solving will be an important paradigm for the next generation of intelligent industrial systems. A key problem with using it in the engineering domain is the development of a structured design method. The authors suggest a design approach for a distributed artificial intelligence (DAI) system based on software engineering, describe the detailed design process of a real DAI system through the example of a simulative transformer substation system (STSS), and present some key problems and techniques of DAI in the engineering domain, such as system modeling, task decomposition and allocation, cooperative mechanism, etc.
