B, Task 2: Applications: the distributed CIM controller, Hamburg 1990, S. 165-71http://tubdok.tub.tuhh.de/handle/11420/380Prior to ESPRIT project 2434, a software module based on Allen's temporal logic was developed for a flow line scheduling expert system at Philips Hamburg. Investigations within ESPRIT 2434 showed the slowness of this software module when applied to larger scheduling tasks (ten or more orders). We expect a hardware solution to yield a speedup of another order of magnitude for temporal inference when applied to the domain of order scheduling. Two questions are answered: (1) what is the best software solution for temporal inference?; (2) can we identify hardware components starting from the best (or any other reasonable) software solution?enhttp://doku.b.tu-harburg.de/doku/lic_ohne_pod.phpTechnikTechnology (Applied sciences)Journal Articleurn:nbn:de:gbv:830-tubdok-451010.15480/882.37811420/38010.15480/882.378930767871Philips GmbH Forschungslaboratorien, Forschungsabteilung Technische Systeme HamburgOther
