Fuzzy Logic Reservoir

Make sure your air tanks are full and take a deep breath before diving into this reservoir. Also be sure to string a return line during your exploration or you might never find your way back home. Gems located at this site are marked by a treasure chest -- all others will take you on a cyberdive. Enjoy your trip.

Jump off the diving platform in one of the following directions to begin your adventure:

Our Crystal Clear Waters

This part of the reservoir contains references to on-line papers, journals, and other publications. You should get a clear understanding of fuzzy logic and its applications from this information.

Fuzzy Logic Papers

OEI/TIL ftp site Contains fuzzy logic demos, papers, text files, utilities, etc. related to Ortech Engineering, Togai InfraLogic, and our products.

Fuzzy Logic - A Tutorial James F. Brule's introduction to fuzzy logic, written in 1985.

FLLL - A Brief Course in Fuzzy Logic A hypertext tutorial in fuzzy logic and fuzzy control by Peter Bauer, Stephan Nouak and Roman Winkler.
Fuzzy Logic ftp Repository at the Boulder Labs Site of the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Contains many papers, articles, news releases, and more.

The Lost Continent of Atlantis

Well maybe they aren't as exciting as a lost continent but these societies and organizations can help open up new worlds to their members.

ERUDIT European fuzzy information network.
IFSA International Fuzzy Systems Association.
NAFIPS North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society

Underwater Caverns

Finding a resource to assist with the development and demonstration of a new concept can sometimes be as difficult and intimidating as exploring an underwater cavern. The organizations listed here try to light the way.

Visit With Other Divers

After your dive, relax a while and visit with other cyberdivers. The best place to start is at the comp.ai.fuzzy newsgroup. The resources and archives listed here should help you find some new acquaintences.

Watch Out for the Sharks

Naturally we think the fuzzy logic products manufactured and sold by Ortech Engineering and Togai InfraLogic are the best on the market. However, in case our products don't address your particular application, we are including links to other commercial vendors on the Internet. Just remember to watch out for sharks in these waters.

(As you check out our competitors, be especially wary of claims such as " ...the only tool that..." or "...the first tool to ...". Keep in mind that Togai InfraLogic has been building fuzzy logic development tools since 1988 and see how many of our competitors are bold enough to provide a cross link to our site and invite a comparison with their tools.)
