Title :
RAES: Reliability Advisor Expert System
Author :
Yates, Wilson D., III
Abstract :
The Reliability Advisor Expert System (RAES) is a prototype artificial intelligence (AI) expert system developed as a nontraditional reliability-assessment tool for performing advanced design trade studies. Developed for use on the IBM PC, RAES provides the design engineer with an easy to use tool that recommends alternative design enhancements which will improve the reliability of the system under study. RAES provides an assessment of system reliability for the recommended design alternatives as a function of projected aircraft weight change, development cost, and projected change in customer life-cycle costs
