Abstract—In this paper, firstly, potential synthesis cases in distributed expert systems (DESs) and types of DESs are identified. Based on these results, necessary conditions of synthesis strategies in different synthesis cases are recognized. Secondly, two methodologies for designing synthesis strategies in distributed expert systems are investigated. They are analysis methods and inductive methods. Thirdly, two methodologies are discussed based on the points of performance, complexity, and requirements.
