Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th Irish Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science, AICS 2009, held in Dublin, Ireland in August 2009. The 32 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The topics covered are classification techniques, biologically-inspired computation, natural language processing, and applications of AI techniques for the social Web and financial markets.
Conquering Complexity
Software has long been perceived as complex, at least within Software Engineering circles. We have been living in a recognised state of crisis since the first NATO Software Engineering conference in 1968. Time and again we have been proven unable to engineer reliable software as easily/cheaply as we imagined. Cost overruns and expensive failures are the norm. The problem is fundamentally one of complexity: software is fundamentally complex because it must be precise. Problems that appear to be specified quite easily in plain language become far more complex when written in a more formal notation, such as computer code. Comparisons with other engineering disciplines are deceptive. One cannot ...
Advances in Case-Based Reasoning
The 7th European Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ECCBR 2004) was held from August 30 through September 2, at the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain. ECCBR was born in Aberdeen, UK (2002), after a series of European workshops held in Trento, Italy(2000), Dublin, Ireland(1998), Lausanne, Switzerland (1996), Paris, France (1994), and Kaiserslautern, Germany (1993). ECCBR is the premier international forum for researchers and practitioners of case-based reasoning (CBR) in the years interleaving with the biennial international counterpart ICCBR, whose 5th edition was held in Trondheim, Norway in 2003. The CBR community has shown for years a deep interest in the application of its researc...
Advances in Case-Based Reasoning
The papers collected in this volume were presented at the 6th European C- ference on Case-Based Reasoning (ECCBR 2002) held at The Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, UK. This conference followed a series of very succe- ful well-established biennial European workshops held in Trento, Italy (2000), Dublin, Ireland (1998), Lausanne, Switzerland (1996), and Paris, France (1994), after the initial workshop in Kaiserslautern, Germany (1993). These meetings have a history of attracting ?rst-class European and international researchers and practitioners in the years interleaving with the biennial international co- terpart ICCBR; the 4th ICCBR Conference was held in Vancouver, Canada in 2001. Proc...
Smart Sensing and Context
This volume constitutes the revised papers of the 4th European Conference on Smart Sensing and Context, Euro SSC 2009, held in Guilford, UK, in September 2009. This volume consists of 16 full papers. Each paper received at least three peer reviews. The conference and proceedings were structured into 6 main tracks which discussed the key themes addressed by EuroSCC 2009: activity recognition, information aspects of context-aware sensor and actuator systems, context-aware service platforms, context processing, reasoning and fusion, real-world experiences with deployed systems, and context-aware frameworks in mobile environments.
Recent Advances in Ambient Intelligence and Context-Aware Computing
Modern devices, from phones and cars to houses and the appliances within them, are being designed with formidable computational power and expanded functionality. To be truly effective, these smart devices must effectively process data from their environment and experiences and make decisions based on that information. Recent Advances in Ambient Intelligence and Context-Aware Computing investigates the functionality of ubiquitous computational systems and how they may adapt to their environment to improve the quality of interaction for the end-user. This reference book will be of value to under- and post-graduate students, professionals, and researchers in networking, computer science, communications, and other information technology disciplines.
Applications and Innovations in Intelligent Systems XII
A. L. Macintosh, Napier University, UK The papers in this volume are the refereed application papers presented at ES2004, the Twenty-fourth SGAI International Conference on Innovative Techniques and Applications of Artificial Intelligence, held in Cambridge in December 2004. The conference was organised by SGAI, the British Computer Society Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence. This volume contains twenty refereed papers which present the innovative application of a range of AI techniques in a number of subject domains. This year, the papers are divided into sections on Synthesis and Prediction, Scheduling and Search, Diagnosis and Monitoring, Classification and Design, and Analysis a...
Pervasive Computing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing, PERVASIVE 2007, held in Toronto, Canada in May 2007. The 21 revised full papers are organized in topical sections on reaching out, context and its application, security and privacy, understanding use, sensing, as well as finding and positioning.
Smart Homes and Beyond
The thought behind this publication is to continue to develop an active research community dedicated to explore how Smart Homes and Health Telematics can foster independent living and offer an enhanced quality of life for ageing and disabled people. As we begin to witness the effects of changing demographics on today’s society we begin to appreciate that the increase in the number of elderly and in the prevalence of those suffering from chronic disease and disabilities are likely to further increase in the next two to three decades. To react to the needs of this cohort to provide an environment within which the people can reside for as long as possible, whilst maintaining their quality of ...
Pervasive Computing
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Pervasive Computing, PERVASIVE 2008, held in Sydney, Australia, in May 2008. The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on sensing and activity recognition, applications for mobile devices, location in pervasive systems, platforms for pervasive computing, lessons learned from displays, games and health applications, as well as privacy and security.
