Web based foundry knowledge base

Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 1

Abstract

The main assumptions and functions of proposed Foundry Knowledge Base (FKB) are presented in this paper. FKB is a framework for information exchange of casting products and manufacturing methods. We use CMS (Content Management System) to develope and maintain our web-based system. The CastML – XML dialect developed by authors for description of casting products and processes – is used as a tool for information interchange between ours and outside systems, while SQL is used to store and edit knowledge rules and also to solve the basic selection problems in the rule-based module. Besides the standard functions (companies data, news, events, forums and media kit), our website contains a number of nonstandard functions; the intelligent search module based on expert system is the main advantage of our solution. FKB is to be a social portal which content will be developed by foundry community.
