I-Promiseintelligent protective material selection
The paper describes I-Promise, an expert system for configuration design of complex protective materials. Configuration problem of I-Promise is a part of conceptual design of complex protective materials; hence, the context of conceptual design and configuration problems is briefly described before the detailed description of I-Promise, its problem domain, its design, and its application. Due to the complexity and sequential nature of its task, I-Promise is designed as a series of three specialized expert systems. I-Promise is a real-world system, built on top of the information system of an enterprise that produces and delivers complex protective materials.
