Both simulation and expert systems are popular ways to solve complex and hard problems. However, the results of the simulation, which include a large amount of valuable information as a good knowledge source, are not used efficiently. Furthermore, the development of the expert systems can fail because there is no expert or an expert is not available. A new Simulation-Based Expert System(SIMBES) paradigm has been constructed to overcome these problems. It consists of simulator, feature extractor, machine learning system, performance evaluator and Knowledge-Based Expert System(KBES). A SIMBES was implemented for an existing schedule-based MRP system in Smalltalk/V to show how this paradigm works and experimented for a large number of jobs. The KBES and the existing system produced better schedules for 72 percent and 28 percent of the jobs, respectively.

The quality of building space program is a key to measure how the building performance satisfies its owner and users. However assuring its efficiency requires reliable criteria that reflect high level experience knowledge in the field. This study suggests a plan to gauge the level of building space performance using expert knowledge, which has not been utilized well enough but should play a critical role. In order to setup an expert system measuring level of the space program, we firstly optimized the space areas to the best case in a knowledgebase and use them as criteria to judge the quality of the spaces extracted from BIM model. We found the experimental results show us a promising way of measuring a relative quality of the space programs.

As modern power systems become large and complicated, the automated voltage and reactive power control system is required in most developed countries due to the recent amazing progress of computer net works and information thechnology. So far the voltage control has been depend on human operator in korean power system. This paper presents an intelligent voltage control system based on sensitivity analysis and artificial intelligence technology. Detailed state space modeling technique is discussed and a new performance index is proposed to speed up the searching performance of the expert system. As the searching strategy is very important factor of the speed of expert system the least first search algorithm is applied using this performance index. The intelligent voltage control system is applied to the Jeju power system. As a result, case studies showed a promissing application of the intelligent voltage control system.

An expert system for NC part programming of NC lathe (ESPP-1) is developed as a part of Computer-Adied Manufacturing system. Conventional computer-assisted part programming system essentially requires an NC part programmer who is an expert in NC part programming. But the developed ESSP-1 can allow an inexperienced person to make an excellent NC data for the NC Lathe without any problem, since the system has a knowledge base composed of EIA and ISO NC code, feed rate, spindle speed, machining coordinates selection, and tool selection etc., which were directly evoked from some skilled NC part programmers, and referenced some machining handbooks. This paper discusses the algorithm of the expert system for NC part programming of the NC lathe (ESPP-1) and the performance comparisons between the developed expert system and the conventional system.

This paper proposes an expert system which can enhance the accuracy of real-time bus reconfiguration strategy by adopting local minimum tree search method and minimize the spreading effect of the fault by considering totally the operating condition when a main transformer fault occurs in the automated substation. The local minimum tree search method to expand the best-first search method. This method has an advantage which can improve the performance of solution within the limits of the real-time condition. The inference strategy proposed expert system consists of two stages. The first stage determines the switching candidate set by searching possible switching candidates starting from the main transformer or busbar related to the event. And, second stage determines the rational real-time bus reconfiguration strategy based on heuristic rules for the obtained switching candidate set. Also, this paper studies the generalized distribution substation modelling using graph theory and a substation database is designed based on the study result. The inference engine of the expert system and the substation database is implemented in MFC function of Visual C++. Finally, the performance and effectiveness of the proposed expert system is verified by comparing the best-first search solution and local minimum tree search solution based on diversity event simulations for typical distribution substation.

Semiconductor chip encapsulation process is employed to protect the chip and to achieve optimal performance of the chip. Expert decision-making to obtain the appropriate package design or process conditions with high yields and high productivity is quite difficult. In this paper, an expert system for semiconductor chip encapsulation has been constructed which combines a knowledge-based system with CAE software.

The material handling equipment selection, that is a key task in the material handling system design, is a complex, difficult task, and requires a massive technical knowledge and systematic analysis. It is also invaluable to justify the selected equipment model by the performance evaluation before its actual implementation. This paper presents an intelligent knowledge-based expert system called "IMESE" created by author, for the selection and evaluation of material handling equipment model suitable for movement and storage of materials in a manufacturing facility. The IMESE was constructed by using the tools of VP-Expert expert system shell, DBASEIII plus, FORTRAN 77, and SLAMII simulation language. The whole process of IMESE is executed under VP-Expert expert system environment.vironment.

There have been two dominant paradigms in understanding and modeling an expert's decision-making behavior: output analysis and process-tracing. While the two paradigms are complementary, they have not been used yet in a combined manner. This study extends the previous research work in the two paradigms to inductive modeling research by 1) analyzing individual experts' decision strategies, 2) comparing performance of four popular inductive modeling methods, and 3) matching their performance against the type of decision strategy employed by experts.

In order to solve scheduling, many techniques including optimization and heuristics methods have been proposed. However, these conventional approaches are usually inadequate to obtain a satisfactory solution because of a NP-Complete which requires extensive computation effort. The aim of this paper is to develop an expert system for job shop scheduling using an AI technique. Through this system, the user can choose one of several performances. If one performance is chosen, then the system solves a scheduling in order to satisfy that performance. Then, this system decides urgent job. This system can utilize production resources efficiently and minimize work-in-process inventories and tardy jobs.
