“…Examples are used to illustrate fuzzy projection, selection, and joining in the extended operations. The fuzzy roster model is currently being studied as a component for developing Knowledge Information Processing Systems (KIPS) in NIAL [2]. KIPS is a class of intelligent information systems which combines expert systems and database systems technology.…”

The roster model is an array-theoretic alternative to the set-theoretic relational model in handling tabular data. In this paper, the roster model and its operations are extended to incorporate fuzzy data modelling and manipulation with the application of Zadeh's possibility theory. The result is a Fuzzy Roster Model. In the fuzzy roster model, there are two levels of uncertainty being represented the uncertainty in the data itself and the uncertainty in the truth value of the data. Fuzzy projections, selections and joinings in the model are illustrated with the use of examples. The original roster model and the fuzzy roster model are implemented in the Nested Interactive Array Language (NIAL), and are running on a Unix based SUN-3 Workstation.

This paper presents the development and simulation of an advanced solar assisted liquid desiccant dehumidification air-conditioning system for energy efficiency and sustainability. The system is mainly designed to cut down building electricity consumption while providing satisfied indoor thermal comfort. It includes a counter flow packed bed absorber, a counter flow packed bed regenerator, and an array of flat plate solar collectors. The system is integrated with an evaporative cooler and a cooling tower to cool the processed air and the strong desiccant solution, respectively.A whole system simulation is used to evaluate the system performance by using a full-scale simulation system developed on the basis of Matlab Simulink platform. The simulation results based on three consecutive sunny summer days in Sydney show that the proposed system can achieve an average daily thermal coefficient of performance of 0.5-0.55, and 73.4% of thermal energy required for thermal regeneration was provided by the solar collectors. It is expected that the average daily thermal coefficient of performance could be higher during other mild summer days as the percentage of thermal energy provided by the solar water heating system will increase due to the relatively low cooling demand of the building.
