Abstract

This paper describes the principal concepts and initial implementation of an innovative approach for embedding a diagnostic reasoning capability onto microcontroller. The approach is predicated upon the use of an automated concurrent engineering tool set that is utilized to develop a diagnostic knowledge base which is subsequently incorporated into microcontroller´s diagnostic run-time system. Examples of centralized and distributed architectures utilizing the subject approach are described
