Abstract

To prevent sewage floods during rainstorms, a prototype of a fault diagnosis system has been built. The prototype is written in the Nested Interactive Array Language, Nial. A fuzzy inference method has been implemented by means of array theory. Thus, a rule like Clog: = Big if (Level is High) is directly executable. As a result, a whole rule-base executes without overhead from parsing.
