文摘

In this study, a troubleshooting task model of automobile chassis is proposed. It integrates a task implementation method with virtual interactive techniques. Declarative knowledge entities make up the kernel of task model. It makes the task more controllable and automatable. Solution of the knowledge entities is directly used to support automotive chassis repair and maintenance. Furthermore, this system allows learners to operate a practical task module for troubleshooting through the Internet. The framework developed is not dependent on specific automobile style or software configuration and it uses open software (e.g. Java, MySQL, etc.) in the problem reasoning, virtual display and data storage. The framework can achieve the advantages and goals of (1) providing references for technicians in detection of chassis problems to promote repairing skills; (2) constructing a Web-based troubleshooting architecture of automotive chassis that can enhance learners’ (e.g. students, freshman, and drivers) knowledge and techniques; and (3) creating a prototype environment for distance learning to eliminate the limitation of space and time.
