In this paper, we proposes a man-machine interface design for fault diagnosis system with inter-node search method in a Petri net model. First, complicated fault cases are modeled as the Petri net graph expressions. Next, to find out causes of the faults on which we focus, a Petri net model is analyzed using the backward reasoning of transition-invariance in the Petri net. In this step, the inter-node search method algorithm is applied to the Petri net model for reducing the range of sources in faults. Finally, the proposed method is applied to a fault diagnosis of a refrigeration system to confirm the validity of the proposed method.

This paper describes a fault diagnosis method by a T-invariance of Petri Net (PN). First, a complicated fault system with some failure is modeled into a PN graphic expressions. Next, the PN model is analyzed by using the backward chaining of T-invariance to find out causes of the faults. In this step, an inter-node search technique which is suggested in this paper is applied for reducing searching area in the fault system. Also, a novel idea to compose incidence matrices which have different dimension each other in PN model is proposed. As the new knowledges which is discovered newly about faults can be added easily to conventional systems, the diagnosis system will be very flexible. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the automobile fault diagnosis system to confirm the validity of the method.

This paper describes a noble fault diagnosis method using inter node search technique in PN model. First, a complicated fault system is modeled as PN graphic expressions. Next, to find out sources for faults on which we focus, the PN model is analyzed using the backward chaining of T-invariance. In this step, the technique of inter node search is applied for reducing some range of sources in a fault. Also, colnposing method of incidence matrix in PN is proposed. Then, it makes the diagnosis system to very flelible system because new knowledges about the sources in a fault can be added easily to conventional systems. Finally, the proposed method is applied to the automobile trouble diagnosis system to confirm the validity of the method.

The purpose of this paper is to present a branch and bound algorithm for the hierarchical transportation network design problem in 2-level directed networks. This problem is to find the least cost of hierarchical transportation networks which consist of a primary path and a secondary path. The primary path is a simple path from a prespecified orgin node to a prespecified terminal node. All nodes must be either a transsipment node on the primary path or connected to that path via secondary arcs. This problem is formulated to a 0-1 inter programming problem with assignment and illegal subtour elimination equations as constaints. We show that the subproblem relaxing subtour elimination constraints is transformed to a linear programming problem by means of the totally unimodularity. Optimal solutions of this subproblem are polynoially obtained by the assignment algorithm and complementary slackness conditions. Therefore, the optimal value of this subproblme is used as a lower bound. When an optimal solution of the subproblem has an illegal subtour, a better disjoint rule is adopted as the branching strategy for reducing the number of branched problems. The computational comparison between the least bound rule and the depth first rule for the search strategy is given.

In this paper a scalable QoS-based hierarchical inter-domain routing scheme for distributed multimedia applications in a high speed wide area network. The problem of QoS-based routing is formulated as a multicriteria shortest path problem, known as NP-complete[21,30]. Our routing scheme consists of two phases. In Phase 1, two graph construction algorithms are performed to model the network under consideration as a graph. The graph contains a part of the network topology which is completely neglected or partially considered by existing routing schemes, thus maintaining more accurate topology information. In Phase 2, a heuristic call-by-call algorithm is performed for selecting a feasible path efficiently in depth first search-like manner on the graph and tailoring to each application's QoS requirements, beginning at a vertex that represents the source node. In this paper, a simple rule is also produced, by which the visiting order of outgoing edges at each vertex on the graph is determined. The rule is based on each edge's the minimum normalized slackness to the QoS requested. The proposed routing scheme extends the PNNI-type hierarchical routing framework. Note that our routing scheme is one of a few QoS-based hierarchical routing schemes that address explicitly the issue of selecting a path with multiple metrics.
