• Inference Methods
  - TVFI (Truth Value Flow Inference), proprietary technology, 100 times faster than Mamdani.
  - Mamdani (center of gravity)

• Operators
  - Minimization and Maximization Operation, Probability Product, Probability Sum, Bounded Intersection and Bounded Union

• Defuzzification Methods
  - Centroid, Leftmost Maximizer, Rightmost Maximizer, Average Maximizer

• Editor
  - Text Editor and Graphical Editor

• Membership Function Editor
  - Provides graphical editing, text entry editing
  - Supports triangle, polygon and artitrary curves
  - Produces membership functions by transforming existing membership functions

• Rule Editor
  - Rule macro provides an effective means to write source code simple and efficiently
  - Rule Matrix provides an easy, spreadsheet-like environment for building fuzzy rules

• Debugging Environments
  - MCU Environment: simulates characteristics of specific microchips of various vendors

• Debugging Tools
  - Tracer
  Allows one to isolate a user defined portion of the input-output relationship, the transfer function of a fuzzy inference unit (FIU) and quickly trace back to the rule statements in a source file. Allows editing of membership functions using freehand drawing techniques.

- Analyzer
Presents several graphic representations of fuzzy unit transfer functions. It can automatically trace a point from its graphic representation to its source text statement. Provides color display of cross sections, contours and control surface (transfer function)..

- Simulator
Presents a fuzzy inference unit in time domain. Reads in input data from files or from internal signal generator, and plots the time varying curves of both inputs and outputs for comparison of convergence, discontinuities, and phase relationships.

• - Waveform Generators
  Generates a wide variety of waveforms (signals) for system simulations, including trains of rectangular pules of varying polarities, width and magnitudes; sinusoidals of varying frequencies, amplitudes, DC levels and noise levels; exponential functions; damped sinusoids; and random noise of varying statistics.

• Real-time Code Generators (RTCs) automatically generate programms in
  - ANSI C
  - Java code
  - MatLab code (M file format)
  - Assembly code for MC6805, MC68HC05, MC68HC11, MC68HC16, MC68HC33x

• Composer (A block-oriented CAD design environment)
  - Integrates fuzzy inference units with non-fuzzy modules into a system for simulation
  - Provides both graphical and textual environments
  - Generates C source code for an integrated system to build one executable.

• System Requirements
  IBM PC compatible, 386 or higher with MS-DOS 3.3 or higher and MS Windows 3.0 or higher, 4MB RAM and 4MB of free hard disk space, plus a VGA monitor.
