ABSTRACT:
An adaptive mechanism is presented in the context of optimization of expert system applications. Both single and multiple processor implementations are disclosed. The mechanism is used to maintain a near-optimal sequence for scanning rule lists in expert systems. For a program containing a sequential-decision chain with many independent or mutually exclusive outcomes with each decision having associated with it some fixed cost and probability, the adaptive mechanism tends to produce the optimal ordering automatically from repeated observations of the execution of the decision chain.
