Abstract This paper presents an advisory conceptual design tool for mechanical transmission systems. Space consideration was taken into account during the design process. A prototype function tree was built in the form of knowledge-based system to transfer a designer’s idea into a set of mechanical components. An advisory expert system was also developed to help a designer in decision making. As an example, a packaging machine is designed using the developed system.

The development of Fasting Ontology in the Pillars of Islam is presented in this paper and has been built based on reliable sources of Islamic Knowledge. The METHONTOLOGY methodology is used for the ontology development, which include identifying motivation scenarios, creating the competency questions, implementation and evaluation. From the beginning of the development of life cycle, the ontology was appraised from the competency questions and the outcome were clear. Therefore, this ontology can link each concept specifically to the individual verse together with the Tafsir that is related to the topics. The ontology proposed will be part of a larger ontology on Five Pillars of Islam. This development of the ontology is intended to refer to the field of learning for other purpose. For instance, search engine, chatbot, expert system or knowledge-based system.

AbstractBRAINDEX (Brain-Death Expert System) is an interactive, knowledge-based expert system offering support to physicians in decision making concerning brain death. The physician is given the possibility of communicating in almost natural language and, therefore, in terms with which he is familiar. This updated version of the system is implemented on an IBM-PC/AT with the expert system shell PC-PLUS and consists of about 430 rules. The determination of brain death is realized with backward chaining and for the optional coma-scaling a forward-chaining mechanism is used.

This paper presents a new concept, a ‘human-computer co-operative system’, as the next-generation knowledge-based system for application to project risk management. It first discusses the characteristics of project risks followed by the development of a common expert system for managing such risks. Then, system limitations are identified in terms of knowledge association, and a ‘human–computer co-operative system’ is proposed to overcome these limitations by explicitly incorporating human intuitive ability into the computer system. Finally, evaluations of the human–computer co-operative system are also described.

A critical problem in robotic manufacturing is that the task of teaching robotics is rather time-consuming. This has become a serious problem in the present age of cost reduction. Collaboration with a company in the field has revealed that the root cause of this problem is that there is not a common knowledge base in this domain, which can serve as shared and reused knowledge. In robotic manufacturing, the skills and experiences of skilled workers are a form of tacit knowledge that is difficult to be acquired and transferred to other workers and robots. This paper proposes a knowledge-based system for sharing and reusing tacit knowledge in the robotic assembly domain. In this system, a modified EBL (Explanation-based Learning) method is proposed to generalize tacit knowledge from specific robotic programs made by skilled workers. A newly operational criterion is proposed for the generalized tacit knowledge, which demands that it should be expressed understandably by human workers and be reusable by robots to generate programs automatically.
