Abstract

The maintenance of a particle detector requires the knowledge of various human experts such as physicists and engineers. The integration of different types of knowledge ånd experiences can be easily obtained by using an Expert System. In this paper the Implementation of an Expert System allowing us to perform on-line fault diagnosis on a complex data acquisition system, designed for MACRO (Mono poles, Astrophysics and Cosmic Ray Observatory) physics investigations, is outlined. Besides on-line diagnosis, it also takes appropriate control actions in order to improve the reliability of the apparatus. MADIES (MACRO Diagnostic Expert System) is developed by using the NEXPERT commercial shell.
