         The Redux' Server

Redux' is a subset of the full REDUX model The latter performs problem
solving. In contrast Redux' does not and acts only as a decision
maintenance server.  It takes objects of types defined in an ontology
of decision components and maintains dependencies between them.
Redux' is domain-independent. The dependency relationships are
maintained on the basis of proposition type and not content, except
for some string matching.  Redux' servers are proposed as a mechanism
for federating heterogeneous design agents by encapsulating their
design decisions within a simple model and providing coordination
services, especially for design revision. This proposal is described
within the context of the SHADE and PACT projects.

There is also a compressed version, prime.ps.Z, that should be
retrieved in binary mode.

As usual, this PostScript probably will not work with Macs, but
it does lpr fine with Sparc and Imagen printers.
