Abstract

This paper discusses diagnosis of industrial data processing pipelines using action languages. Solving the problem requires reasoning about actions, effects of the actions and mechanisms for accessing outside data sources. To satisfy these requirements, we introduce an action language, Hybrid \(\mathcal {AL}E\) that combines elements of the action language Hybrid \(\mathcal {AL}\) [6] and the action language \(C_{TAID}\) [8]. We discuss some of the practical aspects of implementing Hybrid \(\mathcal {AL}E\) and describe an example of its use.
