TRACER (Tracing and Control of Engineering Requirements) is data-base/word-processing software system created to document and maintain order of both requirements and descriptions associated with engineering project. Implemented on IBM PC under PC-DOS. Written with CLIPPER.
Automation technologies which support autonomy in artificial intelligence systems are discussed. The motivation for system control architecture is reviewed, and the concept of an operating system for autonomous control is examined. Design requirements for complex automated systems are summarized, and system engineering tool applications in design support are discussed.
