ABSTRACT:
An artificial intelligence software shell for plant operation simulation includes a blackboard module including a database having objects representing plant elements and concepts. A rule-based knowledge source module and a case-based knowledge source module, in communication with the blackboard module, operate on specific predefined blackboard objects. A user interface module, in communication with the blackboard module, enables a user to view blackboard status information. A control module, in communication with the blackboard module and the knowledge source modules, receives input data and controls operation of the knowledge source modules in accordance with a predetermined knowledge source priority scheme.
