* Parallel Processing and AI *
Parallel Processing and Artificial Intelligence are two key themes
which have risen to the fore of technology in the past decade. This
international conference brings together the two communities.
Communicating Process Architecture is one of the most successful
models for exploiting the potential power of parallel processing machines.
Artificial Intelligence is perhaps the most challenging applications for
such machines. This conference explores the interaction between these two
technologies.
The carefully selected programme of invited talks and submitted papers
brings together the very best researchers currently working in the field.
* Topics include *
Robotics Neural Networks Image Understanding
Speech Recognition Implementation of Logic Programming Languages
Information management The Japanese Fifth Generation Project
Transputers and Occam
