A Universal Concurrent Framework for Fault Diagnosis in Processor Based Systems

After acceptance of artificial intelligence paradigm, a number of successful artificial intelligence systems were created. The most successful area of artificial intelligence is knowledge based systems (KBS). In industries there are many successful applications of KBS. One of the unattempted application is fault diagnosis in processor based systems. The paper discusses implementation of an intelligent frame work using concurrent object orient approach. The knowledge representation is done using software design patterns. The Inference is achieved by using message passing. The paper demonstrates fault diagnosis in typical processor based systems using UML diagrams and also discusses performance over traditional approaches.
