Abstract :
A description is given of the intelligent programmable logic controller (IPLC) software package, which was designed in the inferencing language Prolog. IPLC provides front-end intelligence for the programmable logic controller. IPLC has the ability to analyze, intelligently, plant system knowledge held on a computer so as to make decisions on how to control a process. IPLC is able to generate ladder logic programs for the PLC and synthesize a new control routine when a fault is reported on the process plant
