  • Abstract
    The truth maintenance system of Doyle (1979), McAllester (1980), and de Kleer (1986), are illustrated by examples drawn from work on diagnosis of electronic system faults and maintenance in industrial applications. For tutorial purposes the case where all rules are propositional is first considered in reasonable detail, and then the case where rules contain variables is illustrated and discussed. How truth maintenance systems may be applied to more general search problems is also outlined
