It is our pleasure to present to you the Proceedings of AIAI 2007, the 4th IFIP Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications & Innovations being held from 19* till 21'''of September, in Peania, Athens, GREECE. Relying on a solid theoretical background and exploiting the outcomes of exhaustive research efforts, artificial intelligence technology has been widely applied to various areas aiming at the development of intelligent systems that resemble to an extent human thinking and decision-making. These efforts are supported by the ever-expanding abundance of information and computing...

Computer Aided Innovation (CAI) is a young domain in the array of CAx technologies, the goal of which is to support enterprises throughout the complete innovation process. This book has a comprehensive vision which conceives CAI systems beginning at the creative stage of perceiving business opportunities and customer demands, then continuing to help in developing inventions and turning inventions into successful innovations in the market. Computer Aided Innovation considers changes in innovation paradigms inspired by modern Innovation Theories such as TRIZ, ASIT, Axiomatic Design,...

The information infrastructure--comprising computers, embedded devices, networks and software systems--is vital to operations in every sector. Global business and industry, governments, and society itself, cannot function effectively if major components of the critical information infrastructure are degraded, disabled or destroyed.
This book contains a selection of 27 edited papers from the First Annual IFIP WG 11.10 International Conference on Critical Infrastructure Protection.

Lean Manufacturing has proved to be one of the most successful and most powerful production business systems over the last decades. Its application enabled many companies to make a big leap towards better utilization of resources and thus provide better service to the customers through faster response, higher quality and lowered costs. Lean is often described as "eyes for flow and eyes for muda" philosophy. It simply means that value is created only when all the resources flow through the system. If the flow is stopped no value but only costs and time are added, which is muda (Jap. waste)....
