Current approaches to diagnosis cannot handle novel situations and are inefficient in that they require excessive amounts of test data to isolate a fault. This paper presents a problem-solving method that combines an experientially-based abnormal model of device operation with a functionality-based model of normal operation. The CONSOLIDATE system has been constructed in SMALLTALK-80, and an television diagnosis application has been developed.
