Knowledge-Oriented Approach to the Main Pipeline Complex Dispatching Control

Abstract

The article is devoted to the development of knowledge-oriented models that are able to increase the efficiency and quality of main pipeline complex (MPC) dispatching control. The main attention is paid to the dispatching control of electrochemical protection (ECP) of pipelines from corrosion. Functional knowledge-oriented model that is created on the basis of typical intelligent blocks is proposed. The set of intelligent blocks can solve logical and analytical problems as well as the problems of classification, finding of regularities, abstraction etc that can arise while solving the tasks which are difficult for formalization in ECP domain. The production-frame knowledge models to control the ECP processes have been developed. On the basis of the created models the instrumental tool for automated design of the decision support expert systems and the expert system for ECP process control have been constructed.
