摘要：This article examines and demonstrates the use of expert systems (ES) technology to augment and to enhance measurement systems evaluation procedures. It presents the results of a research project in which an expert system that utilizes a knowledge-based methodology to facilitate or to automate the process in conducting a gauging R&R analysis is developed. The paper begins with a discussion of the steps involved in a variable gauge study, pointing out that inefficiencies and inaccuracies often arise due to the lengthy time requirement and heavy statistical burden placed on the study team. The paper then describes the features and the functionality of the PC-based expert system developed in the research. Numerous screens are provided to illustrate these features. Finally, a synopsis of the primary benefits of the system is given, as well as its limitations that call for further research efforts.
