Systemological Knowledge-based Technology for Solving Complete Ill-structured Problems

Original method and technology of systemological «Unit-Function-Object» analysis for solving complete ill-structured problems is proposed. The given visual grapho-analytical UFO technology for the fist time combines capabilities and advantages of the system and object approaches and can be used for business reengineering and for information systems design. UFO- technology procedures are formalized by pattern-theory methods and developed by embedding systemological conceptual classification models into the system-object analysis and software tools. Technology is based on natural classification and helps to investigate deep semantic regularities of subject domain and to take proper account of system-classes essential properties the most objectively. Systemological knowledge models are based on method which for the first time synthesizes system and classification analysis. It allows creating CASE-toolkit of a new generation for organizational modelling for companies’ sustainable development and competitive advantages providing.

Application of Artificial Intelligence Methods to Computer Design of Inorganic Compounds

In this paper the main problems for computer design of materials, which would have predefined properties, with the use of artificial intelligence methods are presented. The DB on inorganic compound properties and the system of DBs on materials for electronics with completely assessed information: phase diagram DB of material systems with semiconducting phases and DB on acousto-optical, electro-optical, and nonlinear optical properties are considered. These DBs are a source of information for data analysis. Using the DBs and artificial intelligence methods we have predicted thousands of new compounds in ternary, quaternary and more complicated chemical systems and estimated some of their properties (crystal structure type, melting point, homogeneity region etc.). The comparison of our predictions with experimental data, obtained later, showed that the average reliability of predicted inorganic compounds exceeds 80%. The perspectives of computational material design with the use of artificial intelligence methods are considered.

Exact Discriminant Function Design Using Some Optimization Techniques

Some aspects of design of the discriminant functions that in the best way separate points of predefined final sets are considered. The concept is introduced of the nested discriminant functions which allow to separate correctly points of any of the final sets. It is proposed to apply some methods of non-smooth optimization to solve arising extremal problems efficiently.

Mathematical Modeling of the Weaving Structure Design

Красимир Йорджев, Христина Костадинова - В работата се разглежда една релация на еквивалентност в множеството от всички квадратни бинарни матрици. Обсъдена е комбинаторната задача за намиране мощността и елементите на фактормножеството относно тази релация. Разгледана е и възможността за получаване на някои специални елементи на това фактормножество. Предложен е алгоритъм за решаване на поставените задачи. Получените в статията резултати намират приложение при описанието топологията на различните тъкачни структури.
