Combinatorial optimization problems are often encountered in real-world applications, including logistics, scheduling and ...

Abstract: A growing number of industrial applications use rule-based programming. Frequently, the implementation of the inference engine embedded in these applications is based on the RETE algorithm.

Transformers are playing an increasingly significant part in energy conversion, transmission, and distribution, which link various resources, including conventional, renewable, and sustainable energy, ...

Use of dermoscopy and detection algorithms by primary care physicians can enhance assessment of clinically suspicious lesions compared with that of naked eye examinations. Use of dermoscopy and ...

Many frameworks and programming languages introduce complexity that has nothing to do with the applications we are trying to build. Ideally, the only complexity we should face is that which is ...

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new programming paradigm named Notification-Oriented Paradigm (NOP) and analyses the performance aspects of NOP programs by means of an experiment. NOP provides a new ...

Lisa is a production-quality, forward-chaining expert system shell featuring an optimized implementation of Charles Forgy's Rete algorithm, a highly efficient solution to the difficult many-to-many ...
