Abstract :
This paper introduces three possible approaches for synthesis of solutions in distributed expert systems (DESs) and demonstrates three different strategies which are a computational strategy, a neural network strategy, and a case-based strategy. Furthermore, these strategies are compared based on the design principles and performances. The aim of this paper is to study different approaches for designing synthesis strategies and offers guide lines for selecting a suitable method for solution synthesis in different synthesis cases.
