Opis

This book is a collection of some of the papers that werepresented during aNATO Advanced Research Workshop held inKusadasi, Turkey, August 24-28, 1992. Attendance at thisworkshop was mainly by invitation only, drawing peoplerepresenting industry, government and the academiccommunity. Many of the participants were internationallyrecognized leaders in the topic of the workshop.The papers in the volume are grouped in six parts, with abalance of theory and applications. Some papers provideintroductory and overview material as well as reviews of thestate of the art and others provide detail in specializedareas which can be useful to practitioners. The partsdiscuss the following topics: - Intelligent systems: analysis and assessment issues- Dependability of intelligent systems- Intelligent front ends- Learningsystems- Safety and reliability of advanced robotic systems- Dependability considerations in industrial applications.
