With the mechanical monitoring devices in place more accurate information may be derived, but as systems get more complex the interpretation of this information becomes more difficult, even impossible for the human expert. Computers can be used in the interpretation of these data, using numerical techniques in some cases or, more recently, expert systems. The expert system in condition monitoring, a relatively new concept, is an effective tool in interpreting large amounts of data. This paper describes a general intelligent system architecture for equipment monitoring and maintenance, known as the intelligent maintenance support system. It makes use of mechanical hardware monitoring systems, several intelligent analysis tools, and an intelligent hypermedia system that is implemented with INTEMOR.
