Case-Based Reasoning Disassembly System, Ibrahim Zeid, Surendra M. Gupta, Li Pan Apr 2012

Case-Based Reasoning Disassembly System, Ibrahim Zeid, Surendra M. Gupta, Li Pan

Ibrahim Zeid

This paper presents a new approach to address the problem of Planning for Disassembly (PFD). The approach is based on the Case-based reasoning technique. To assist planners to solve PFD problems, a system must have some heuristics and domain specific knowledge, which is related to the representation of the disassembly knowledge. In previous work, the authors suggested to use EMOPs (Eposodic Memory Organization Packet) for the knowledge representation of the PFD plan. This paper demonstrates the implementation of the EMOP memory model. The model has been implemented in C++, and tested. An example is presented to demonstrate the capabilities of …


Disassembly Knowledge Representation Via Xml, Ibrahim Zeid, Surendra M. Gupta Apr 2012

Disassembly Knowledge Representation Via Xml, Ibrahim Zeid, Surendra M. Gupta

Ibrahim Zeid

Extensible markup language (XML) is a new powerful technique for Web and Internet development. It is a method of defining structured data in a text file. XML is expected to do for data what HTML has done for Web pages. XML's strength lies in its simplicity to represent data and knowledge. It can maintain hierarchical structures encountered in many systems including assemblies and disassemblies. It can also be well integrated with Java, and its Java beans. Its strength lies in its flexibility to adapt to any knowledge domain because it is a metalanguage. It is used to develop modeling languages …
