Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2007.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 57-58).
We present the design and implementation of a framework for storing and analysing knowledge about engineering systems. The hierarchical entity-relation-attribute model is useful for large data sets, in which it can abstract details so that human users are able to reason about the data. The time-series extension to the model abstracts temporal details. Finally, the implementation of the model includes an execution engine that can simulate the model in one time-slice or as a function of time.

<Abstract>We present the design and implementation of a framework for storing and analysing knowledge about engineering systems. The hierarchical entity-relation-attribute model is useful for large data sets, in which it can abstract details so that human users are able to reason about the data. The time-series extension to the model abstracts temporal details. Finally, the implementation of the model includes an execution engine that can simulate the model in one time-slice or as a function of time.</Abstract>
