Abstract: A process, in which the original master diagram, which is used as the generic representation of the variation spectrum of the product and in which at least one symbol corresponds to every possible component of the product, is stored in the coded form in the memory of the information processing unit, is disclosed for the computerized generation of engineering data for products that are assembled according to individual specifications of the components. The conditions for the presence of components or of operating materials of components in an expression of the product that meets the specification are stored in the memory such that they are associated with the symbols of the original master diagram that correspond to the component or to an operating material of the component.

Abstract: A method for generating an output for a fuzzy controller by evaluating a set of linguistic rules. For each input signal, a linguistic hedge is formed to be a fuzzy information system. Each linguistic rule is also formed with a premise consisting of a multitude of linguistic statements about pairwise different input signals, linked by AND, or consisting of one statement about one input signal, and a conclusion consisting of a linguistic statement about the output signal of the fuzzy controller. The set of rules is built such that it forms a complete and consistent set of linguistic rules.
