Abstract :
The authors introduce system design methods that can contribute to the resolution of the rather complex requirements in the field of medical instrumentation, drawing on their own experiences in the development of intelligence EEG recorders and analyzers. They focus on the integration of the knowledge base with the numerical database and the algorithms within the unified real-time control structure of the measuring system. Possible alternatives are presented for the implementation of both conventional data processing and knowledge-based data processing. The authors discuss the problem-oriented user interface and conclude with a short presentation of an intelligent EEG recorder development.<>
