A Blackboard Globally Recast as an Interpreter • The blackboard model of problem solving is a highly structured special case of opportunistic problem solving. • The solution space is organized into several application-dependent hierarchies and the domain knowledge partitioned into independent modules of knowledge that operate on knowledge within and between levels. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
Basic architecture of a blackboard system Three Major parts: • Knowledge sources • The blackboard data structure • Control Example: HEASRSAY – II www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS

-Blackboard • HEARSAY-II speech recognition system. • The blackboard structure is a six- to eight-level hierarchy in which each level abstracts information on its adjacent lower level. • blackboard elements represent hypotheses about the interpretation of an utterance. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
-Knowledge Sources • Knowledge sources correspond to such tasks as segmenting the raw signal, identifying phonemes, generating word candidates, hypothesizing syntactic segments, and proposing semantic interpretations. • Each knowledge source is organized as a condition part that specifies when it is applicable and an action part that processes relevant blackboard elements and generates new ones. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
-Control • The control component is realized as a blackboard monitor and a scheduler. • The scheduler monitors the blackboard and calculates priorities for applying the knowledge sources to various elements on the blackboard. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS

Interpreter View • The complexity arises because it is now illustrating two concepts: The blackboard model and realization of that model by a virtual machine. • The blackboard model can be recovered by suppressing the control mechanism and regroupingthe conditions and actions into knowledge sources. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
Interpreter View • The interpretation engine includes several components like: the blackboard monitor, the focus of control database, and the scheduler, but also the actions of the knowledge sources. • The scheduling queue corresponds roughly to the control state. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
Conclusion • We see a system initially designed with one model (blackboard, a special form of repository), then realized through a different model (interpreter). • The view as an interpreter is a different aggregation of components from the view as blackboard. www.bookspar.com | Website for Students | VTU NOTES | QUESTION PAPERS | NEWS | RESULTS
