Subjects Fuzzy logic   Automatic control   Expert systems (Computer science)   UML (Computer science)   Computer software -- Development   Object-oriented methods (Computer science)   MSE Project. Description:  256 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm. Contents:  Committee member(s): Hue Tran, Dr. Christopher Taylor. Introduction -- Fuzzy logic engine (FLE) software design -- A functional prototype -- Summary -- References -- Bibliography -- Appendix: Functional prototype C++ source code. The purpose of this Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) Capstone Project was to design a flexible, extendable, and robust software-based Fuzzy Logic Engine (FLE) using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) to communicate the design and software design patterns as a basis for an object-oriented design. The design features included: Interfacing with any input/output subsystem used as data-sources or data-sinks, capturing system events and statistical information for debugging and analysis, describing fuzzy logic system models using a simple grammar and text files, and offering easily interchangeable algorithms, like defuzzification algorithms. The design utilized the Composite design pattern when parent-child hierarchies were needed, while an Observer-like pattern applied to a notification subsystem automatically communicating data and events between objects. The Builder and Visitor patterns were utilized in converting user-defined fuzzy logic system models into executable software objects, while the Strategy pattern was applied to make families of interchangeable algorithms. Finally, the Facade design pattern was utilized to provide a simple, single, public interface for clients, thus hiding the subsystem details. The technical, mathematical understandings of fuzzy logic theory were replaced with simpler, graphical understandings to communicate design information to implementers lacking a detailed background in fuzzy logic theory. Furthermore, the report discusses a functional prototype successfully demonstrating a simplified implementation of the notification subsystem lending confidence in aspects of the design.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .P78 2003 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
