Sažetak
The modern era brought new production paradigms and personalized production is among the most challenging ones. The integration of the customer's specific requirements into the product design is a challenge which can be addressed with the product configurator. In the mass production, the product configurators usually used the constraint-based approach which becomes insufficient for the B2C (business-to-consumer) relationship of the personalized production. Today, complex products result with complex product configurators which are not user-friendly. Nevertheless, the user is usually not interested in detailed technical specifications of the product, but rather in its performance. If the user could only define his/her needs in a term of product's performance, an intelligent backend algorithm should configure the product with desired performance. In this research, a step forward is made by designing a system, rather than designing an algorithm, which can take into account user preferences and decide which product configuration is the best compromise. This paper presents a prototype of the knowledge-based cognitive system for solving special case of product configuration problem. It is the performance-based B2C product configurator for the personalized production era. The proof of concept is the case of solving the product configuration instance with criteria which require humanoid decision-making.
