ABSTRACT:
A strategic method for process control wherein the method includes, for a predetermined process juncture, the steps of: (A) defining an interconnection cell having associated therewith (i) at least one set of input data or at least one set of process control parameters, and (ii) at least one set of output data; (B) assigning at least one boundary value to at least one set of the sets associated with the defined interconnection cell; (C) using the assigned at least one boundary value, forming a plurality of discrete respective set combinations, and (D) for the interconnection cell, processing data from the plurality of respective formed set combinations into respective corresponding data record clusters.The strategic method for process control is a continuation-in-part of a Knowledge-Engineering Protocol-Suite, (U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/588,681 filed on 7 Jun. 2000) incorporated herein by reference, that generally includes methods and systems, apparatus for search-space organizational validation, and appurtenances for use therewith. The protocol-suite includes a search-space organizational validation method for synergistically combining knowledge bases of disparate resolution data-sets, such as by actual or simulated integrating of lower resolution expert-experience based model-like templates to higher resolution empirical data-capture dense quantitative search-spaces. The protocol-suite includes facile algorithmic tools for use with the method.
