Cw. Desilva et N. Wickramarachchi, KNOWLEDGE-BASED SUPERVISORY CONTROL-SYSTEM OF A FISH PROCESSING WORKCELL - PART I - SYSTEM-DEVELOPMENT, Engineering applications of artificial intelligence, 11(1), 1998, pp. 97-118
A laboratory workcell has been developed for fish cutting. The workcel
l, which uses a variety of sensors, actuators, and hardware for compon
ent interfacing and control, operates with the help of a dedicated sup
ervisory control system. A layered architecture has been used for the
system. It has several knowledge-based modules for carrying out tasks
such as workcell monitoring, controller tuning, workcell conditioning,
and product quality assessment. The paper describes the workcell and
the development of the supervisory control system. Development of the
knowledge-based modules of the system, which employ fuzzy logic for kn
owledge representation and decision making, is described. (C) 1998 Els
