A Software Architecture for a Fault Diagnostic Engine

This document is the complete Carnegie Mellon SEI format Software Architecture Document for a multi-agent fault diagnostic engine. It replicates all the document sections recommended in the SEI template and the SEI Views and Beyond methodology. The document supports the journal paper "Architecting an Agent-Based Fault Diagnosis Engine for IEC 61499 Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems" by Barry Dowdeswell, Roopak Sinha and Stephen G. MacDonell.

A blank template for the LaTeX format of the document has been provided in zip-format for practitioners who wish to develop similar documents. It provides placeholders for all the document sections an examples of the LaTeX structures used to create the document.

本文件为采用卡内基梅隆大学软件工程研究所（Software Engineering Institute，SEI）格式编写的多智能体故障诊断引擎（multi-agent fault diagnostic engine）完整软件架构文档，完整复刻了SEI模板及SEI视图与拓展方法论中推荐的全部文档章节。本文件为Barry Dowdeswell、Roopak Sinha与Stephen G. MacDonell发表于期刊的论文《面向IEC 61499工业信息物理系统的基于AI智能体的故障诊断引擎架构设计》提供支撑。
本文件的LaTeX格式空白模板已以ZIP压缩包形式提供，供希望编写同类文档的从业者使用。该模板为所有文档章节预留了占位符，并提供了编写本文件所用的LaTeX结构示例。
