2. Introduction
 a computer program typically used to provide some
form of artificial intelligence
 consists primarily of a set of rules about behavior
 Productions are a basic representation found useful in
automated planning, expert systems and action
selection
 provides the mechanism necessary to execute
productions in order to achieve some goal for the
system.
 consist of two parts: a sensory precondition (or "IF"
statement) and an action (or "THEN").

3. Strong Method
 depends on a system being given a great deal of
knowledge about its world and the problems that it
might encounter.
 problem solving depends on the weak methods because
a system with knowledge is useless without some
methodology for handling that knowledge.

4. Weak Method
 use systems such as logic, automated reasoning, and
other general structures that can be applied to a wide
range of problems
 do not necessarily incorporate any real knowledge
about the world of the problem that is being solved.

5. Weak Vs Strong Method
● WM: Focused towards the technology which is capable
of carrying out pre planned moves based on some rules
and applying it to achieve goals
● SM: Based on coming up with a technology that can
think and function similar to humans
● Application of weak method makes humans feel that
machines are acting intelligent
● Application of strong method will act and think like
human and making humans feel machines are
intelligent

6. Advantages
• Provides excellent tool for structuring AI
programs
• Highly modular because individual rules can be
added, removed or modified independently
• Expressed in natural form
