Abstract

An example of how to implement the acumen concept to 1-D neutronics codes is presented here. The acumen concept makes these codes capable of detecting the execution time errors in addition to the usual user physical, geometrical, read-write errors in the input file so that these errors can be corrected before wrong calculations and results are obtained, with indication of their potential origin in the input file. Acumen-provided codes can detect the error, but they cannot correct it. The next generation of codes (the “intelligent” codes) can be the final solution to the problem with the help of databases serving as the basis for expert systems which can detect and correct the errors. Acumen-provided codes are directed to save both the user’s time and effort. These codes are examples of how The System Theory (ST) can be successfully applied to systems consisting of programs written in some third generation programming languages.
