This book is dedicated to the memory of Professor Zdzisaw Pawlak who passed away almost six year ago. He is the founder of the Polish school of Artificial Intelligence and one of the pioneers in Computer Engineering and Computer Science with worldwide influence. He was a truly great scientist, researcher, teacher and a human being.
This book prepared in two volumes contains more than 50 chapters. This demonstrates that the scientific approaches discovered by of Professor Zdzisaw Pawlak, especially the rough set approach as a tool for dealing with imperfect knowledge, are vivid...

This book discusses current topics in rough set theory. Since Pawlak’s rough set theory was first proposed to offer a basis for imprecise and uncertain data and reasoning from data, many workers have investigated its foundations and applications. Examining various topical issues, including object-oriented rough set models, recommendation systems, decision tables, and granular computing, the book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the field.

This textbook explores the current challenges in and future prospects of context-aware pervasive systems and applications. The phenomenal advances in broadband technology and ubiquitous access to the Internet have transformed Internet computing into the Internet of Things (IoT), which is now evolving toward the Internet of Everything. Modern scientific, engineering, and business applications are increasingly dependent on machine-to-machine communication, wherein there is less human intervention. In turn, this creates a need for context-aware pervasive systems and applications in which...

This book is a useful guide for the teaching fraternity, administrators and education technology professionals to make good use of AI across outcome-based technical education (OBTE) ecosystem and infuse innovations and affordable digital technologies to traditional pedagogic processes to make teaching-learning more independent of human factor (teacher/student quality), time and place and at the same time more impactful and enjoyable for the learners. Providing access to the digital media and learning tools (even to the extent of mobile apps) to the students would allow them to keep pace with...

This book was developed during a particular pandemic situation in the whole world which confined people to their homes. Therefore, there was a rise in the use of distance working and learning (e-learning) which led to a very quick adoption of technology in order to guarantee different approaches to fulfil the same or better outcomes and ensure that people are connected. This book provides a better understanding about the importance of teams' assessment and collaborative work, as well as the use of collaboration tools and online assessment techniques supported by...

This book explores the benefits to online teaching incorporating extended reality technologies both from a teacher’s and from a students’ perspective. As we are all aware, the COVID-19 pandemic has created a worldwide lock down which is clearly visible in individuals’ shifting behaviour as they are keeping away from public contact, large events, weddings, places of worship, public transportation, restaurant, flights, shopping malls, etc. People across the world have adopted to Work From Home (WFH) concept using digital technology. They are teaching, learning, conducting meetings,...
