Overview: Provides a comprehensive overview of computational intelligence methods for semantic knowledge management.Covers both theoretical and application aspects.Written by leading experts in the fieldThis book provides a comprehensive overview of computational intelligence methods for semantic knowledge management. Contrary to popular belief, the methods for semantic management of information were created several decades ago, long before the birth of the Internet. In fact, it was back in 1945 when Vannevar Bush introduced the idea for the first protohypertext: the MEMEX (MEMory + indEX) mac

Overview: Modern information systems rely increasingly on combining concurrent, d- tributed, real-time, recon?gurable and heterogeneous components. New models, architectures, languages, and veri?cation techniques are necessary to cope with thecomplexityinducedbythedemandsoftoday’ssoftwaredevelopment. COOR- DINATIONaimstoexplorethespectrumoflanguages,middleware,services,and algorithms that separate behavior from interaction, therefore increasing mo- larity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. This volume contains the proceedings of the 10th International Confer

Overview: At the American Chemical Society meeting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., a symposium was organized entitled, "Comparison of Ab Initio Quantum Chemistry with Experiment: State-of-the-Art." The intent of the symposium was to bring together forefront experimen­ talists, who perform the types of clean, penetrating experiments that are amenable to thorough theoretical analysis, with inventive theore­ ticians who have developed high accuracy ab initio methods that are capable of competing favorably with experiment, to assess the current applicability of theoretical methods in chemis

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Computer analysis of images and patterns is a scienti c eld of longstanding tradition, with roots in the early years of the computer era when electronic brains inspired scientists. Moreover, the design of vision machines is a part of humanity’s dream of the arti cial person. I remember the 2nd CAIP, held in Wismar in 1987. Lectures were read in German, English and Russian, and proceedings were also only partially written in English. The conference took place under a di erent political system and proved that ideas are independent of political walls. A

Overview: The impact of CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing) on the competitiveness of industry is nowadays well acknowledged. Significant increases in productivity, reduction of production costs and the ability to modify operations quickly are amongst the gains made when applying CIM technologies. The integration of automation islands and the application of information technology throughout manufacturing and engineering environments constitute key tasks for European industry. ESPRIT (European Strategic Programme for Research and Development in Information Technology) is a pre-competitive i

Overview: RajB KNRao Conference Director, Birmingham Polytechnic Condition Monitoring and Diagnostic Engineering Management (COMADEM) is a relatively new field that has already made its mark in a wide range of industries. But all the signs are that even more will be required of researchers in the field over the next decade, for COMADEM directly addresses a whole range of issues that are likely to become increasingly important to companies as competitiveness increases along with the uncertainties resulting from rapid technological change. Already for example, businesses are having to scrutinize
