Blackboard Architecture for Product Life Cycle Stage Definition
Proceedings of 14th International Conference on Soft Computing 2008
Darja Rudenko, Arkādijs Borisovs

The product life cycle concept suggests that a product passes through four stages of evolution: introduction, growth, maturity and decline. As the product evolves and passes through these four stages, profit is affected, and different strategies have to be employed to ensure that the product is a success within its market, therefore there is a need to define in time at which of the stages the product is at the moment. The blackboard architecture is not a new technology and has a lot of benefits; therefore it can be widely used. The blackboard methodology is a complicated system task solving strategy using different knowledge sources communicating by means of common information field. The blackboard architecture can offer a centralized system, and it is known that system centralization means that the system will be robust without complicating system’s parts. Instead, simple parts will make up robust system.
