An expert system undertakes a human problem of which solutions can be logically determined by a natural deductive system (natural system based on a series of solid knowledge) and codes it with the help of a computer. It results in this manner a software component that interprets the logical solution and transforms it into a codes solution. If all this process takes place in its expected order, then one can foresee the expected results. The expert systems are numerical structures of regulating and automat control using an operation system, a programming environment and a series of execution organs that fulfill promptly the commands of the expert systems. The thermal system represents the totality of the equipment and parameters of the thermal process concerning at the achieving of a heating region according to the technological conditions and these of the material to be processed
. The link between the expert system and the thermal system can be done through a logic and physic interface materialised in an algorythm and a hardware component. The relation between the two systems is that the expert system determines the thermal system, because the first is based on knowledge, professional experience (of human factor who build it!), as well as a logic reasoning, while the second is the necessary and sufficient infrastructure enabling the relation between the two systems (equipment, command elements, measurement apparatus etc.).
Summary: An expert system undertakes a human problem of which solutions can be logically determined by a natural deductive system (natural system based on a series of solid knowledge) and codes it with the help of a computer. It results in this manner a software component that interprets the logical solution and transforms it into a codes solution.
