Software Engineering for Intelligent Control Systems

November 1, 2002
Author(s)
Tony Barbera, Elena R. Messina, Hui-Min Huang, Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky
Understanding how humans manage information and carry out actions provides a foundation for the software engineering of intelligent control systems. The Real-time Control System (RCS) design methodology and reference architecture, founded on human

Knowledge Engineering for Real Time Control

October 30, 2002
Author(s)
John Evans, Elena R. Messina, James S. Albus, Craig I. Schlenoff
The key to real-time intelligent control lies in the knowledge models that the system contains. Three main classes of knowledge are identified: parametric, geometric/iconic, and symbolic. Each of these classes provides unique perspectives and advantages

Towards a Formal Representation of Driving Behaviors

October 28, 2002
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Michael Gruninger

Ontology Engineering for Distributed Collaboration in Manufacturing

March 1, 2000
Author(s)
L Pouchard, Nenad Ivezic, Craig I. Schlenoff
The problems of inter-operability are acute for manufacturing applications, as applications using process specifications do not necessarily share syntax and definitions of concepts. The Process Specification Language developed at the National Institute of

The Process Specification Language (PSL) Overview and Version 1.0 Specification

February 1, 2000
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Michael Gruninger, Florence Tissot, John Valois, Joshua Lubell, Jonathan W. Lee
In all types of communication, the ability to share information is often hindered because the meaning of information can be drastically affected by the context in which it is viewed and interpreted. This is especially true among manufacturing systems

An Analysis of Existing Ontological Systems for Applications in Manufacturing

January 1, 2000
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Peter O. Denno, Robert W. Ivester, Simon Szykman, Don E. Libes
The objective of this work described in this paper is to move closer to the ultimate goal of seamless system integration using the principle behind ontological engineering to unambiguously define domain-specific concepts. Current integration efforts are

Process Representation Using Architectural Forms: Accentuating the Positive

December 1, 1999
Author(s)
Joshua Lubell, Craig I. Schlenoff
The PSL (Process Specification Language) project is creating a standard language for process specification to serve as an interlingua to integrate multiple process-related applications throughout the manufacturing life cycle. This interchange language is

The Essence of the Process Specification Language

August 1, 1999
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff
In all types of communication, the ability to share information is often hindered because the meaning of information can be drastically affected by the context in which it is viewed and interpreted. This is especially true among manufacturing simulation
