Synopsis : In February 1984, Kawasaki Steel developed a real-time expert for its round billet-conditioning yard for the first time in the world. Thereafter, the company began to actively apply AI technology to many process control problems such as material flow and automation systems. This paper discusses the evolution of AI techniques to date in the context of FMS for steel production. In particular, the paper describes the application of such AI techniques as expert systems, fuzzy control theory, and near-network systems to planning, control, measurement, learning, and diagnosis in various processes, and their contribution to the expansion of problem-solving methods in an FMS environment. |
