FUZZ: Fuzzy system development stuff

Libraries version 1.6

READ THE DISCLAIMER!

INTRODUCTION

Fuzz is a set of files and tools that, as a combination, serves as a
toolkit supporting the development of applications using fuzzy rule
bases. At its current state, it's pretty much rudimentary with respect
to its documentation. Regarding its functionality, its more or less
complete. For an introduction to fuzzy logics, please check any of the
numerous introductory books or articles that are available in
virtually any language. Here, I'll concentrate on the package itself.
Since the whole thing was developed using SAS/C on an Amiga, I'll
describe everything in terms of AmigaOS. Nevertheless, libraries and
tools are available for other platforms, I personally have them
running under Solaris 1.x and 2.x, MS-DOS, and OS/9. 

Fuzz mainly consists of three things:

1.  A library and a set of include files that allow for easy
    incorporation of fuzzy systems in a proprietary 
    application program written in C.

2.  A compiler for translating a fuzzysystem specified in fuzz-syntax into
    a C program. 

3.  Several tools that allow to check developed systems.


Additionally, the package contains several example fuzzy systems.
Usually, you'll get Fuzz in an archive, which you just have to unpack
to somewhere on your harddisk. This should give you a tree like this:

fuzz
    bin
    doc
    examples
    inc
    lib


To run any of the programs, you don't have to do anything else.  If
you want to use the crossreferences contained in the library's
AmigaGuide documentation, you have to do an assign  fuzz:   <whereever
your  fuzz  root-directory  is  located>, e.g., assign  fuzz:
home:sas-c/fuzz.  If you want the utilities and the compiler in your
path, add a 'path  fuzz:bin fuzz:bin/tools add' to your user-startup
(located behind the assign command).  

LEGAL STUFF

Permission is granted to use the libraries, the include files, and the
tools to develop and release code public and commercial.  Permission
is NOT granted to dissasemble, modify, or re-release the code or
documentation. 

DISCLAIMER

This software is provided as is. I claim no responsibility for any
damages that may occur from the use of any of the included files.  Use
this software at your own risk.

WHAT ELSE?

If anyone would like to write a GUI for the whole thing, contact me.
I'd certainly like one, but I currently don't have the time to do it
myself.
