Company description
KEEL ("Knowledge Enhanced Electronic Logic") Technology can be used to model & deploy very complex, non-linear systems (dynamically changing systems) - without using conventional mathematical formulas.
It can be used to rapidly translate human logic and reasoning to quantified/characterized complex decision making logic for machines or software applications through the use of a graphical toolkit and associated processes. The technology offers a way to rapidly accelerate the design/development of complex control logic and subsequent software coding as well as the potential for much more overall efficient coding than conventional means and is suitable for use by domain experts without mathematical or software engineering experience.
KEEL is:
- A new way to process information by accumulating supporting and objecting arguments (driving or blocking signals) in order to make a decision or take an action
- A development environment including a "dynamic, graphical language" for modeling and testing human-like reasoning
- A small footprint engine (function or class method) that processes sensors or other inputs according to the design of a system created in the development environment
- 100% auditable -- decisions and actions can always be explained
- A method for implementing the reasoning "engine" as an analog circuit (if very high speed operation is required)
- Platform and Architecture independent
- An expert, policy-based system - with the added feature that the policies can be defined to change dynamically (adapt) as the environment changes
[Note: There are many papers and demos on our website (http://www.compsim.com/). However, we have been told many times that after we have a chance to "show" people KEEL (i.e. a 30 minute phone discussion), they are able to see/read/understand the papers and demos more quickly & easily.]
Team
Helena Keeley
Compsim CEO
Helena Keeley graduated from the University of Central Florida with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Electrical Engineering). She has experience in the areas of software, automation and management - including seven (7) years with General Electric, and sixteen (16) years with Rockwell (Allen-Bradley Co). After graduating from UCF, she went to work for General Electric in their airline Simulation and Controls Systems Division where she worked on Boeing Aircraft simulation hardware and software. After that, she joined GE's Robot and Vision Systems group where she developed and deployed industrial robot applications. In 1986, Helena joined Allen-Bradley Co. (Rockwell). She developed and managed a number of industrial automation projects for Rockwell's printed circuit board factories. Later she transferred to the Information Technology department, where she was responsible for E-Commerce and Information Security and Electronic Data Interchange. Helena has been the CEO of Compsim LLC since 2002. Her responsibilities include Sales and Marketing, and System Testing for Compsim's technologies: Compsim's Management Tools and KEEL® Technology.
Tom Keeley
Compsim President
Tom Keeley is the President and Technical Visionary of Compsim LLC. He received his BS degree from the College of Engineering and Technology of Bradley University. He was involved in software development, technical management, and business & technical strategy development at GE and Rockwell. He started Compsim in 1999. His fields of endeavor have touched inertial guidance and fire control systems for the US Navy, data communication systems (fixed & mobile), industrial robotics, vision inspection systems, bar code and RF identification systems, industrial system architectures and medical diagnostics. Over the last decade he has focused on techniques for knowledge capture and decision-making; first for individuals and businesses and later for techniques that will allow devices to exercise reason on their own. He has received patent and trade secret awards from GE and Rockwell and has developed a patent portfolio for Compsim. He is the inventor of Knowledge Enhanced Electronic Logic (KEEL®) Technology which includes 1) a "dynamic graphical language" for capturing and executing human-like reasoning in a design environment using 2) a new form of mathematics that can be packaged as 3) cognitive engines that can be deployed in software applications, computer based devices, and as analog circuits.
Business model
Technology Licensing and Technology Transfer Support
Compsim is looking to partner with or be acquried by an organization that can take KEEL Technology to the world and deploy it in the broad market areas where it can be of most benefit. This organization will aggressively create a significant competitive advantage for itself using KEEL Technology.
- Smarter Tactics and Strategies
- through "Executable Models"
- Smarter Devices and Systems
- that can "Think and Act on their own"
- Explainable / Auditable Decisions and Actions
- so the systems can be fixed and extended as situations evolve
- Rapid Time to Market
- to satisfy the "need for speed" in today's dynamic environment
Competitive advantage
Advantages:
- 90% or more productivity increase when addressing complex problem sets using the KEEL Toolkit and the KEEL "dynamic graphical language"
- KEEL "Engines" - the cognitive models created with the KEEL Toolkit are platform and architecture independent and suitable for embedded real-time applications.
- Decisions and Actions are 100% explainable and auditable.
- Design once and deploy many (Once KEEL models are created with the KEEL Toolkit they can be deployed as C, C++, C++.net, C#, Flash ActionScript, Java, JavaScript, Octave(MATLAB), Python, VB (6), VB.NET and others.
Summary:
- Devices / Systems that can interpret information better and faster and can react better and faster will win.
- Organizations that control those devices / systems will win.
- Organizations that can accumulate these devices / systems faster will win.
