Abstract
Building knowledge-based design systems for a class of well-known products or systems is an important topic of interest for researchers in artificial intelligence. Systems which are able to assist in analysing complicated cases and situations, in applying relevant regulations, in pointing to necessary actions, in giving aid in calculating can be of value for a lot of specific tasks in production. This relates to tasks like designing a new machine or tool, scheduling a smooth production process from design to the end product, checking how parts of different material will go together, etc. For this purpose, a knowledge-based system called WIND (Synthesis of WINDow parts), is developed for the synthesis of parts in a design product. In this study, the design product is a dwelling window holding assemblies of profiles like a machine.
