AIMS & SCOPE
        
    The objective of this journal is to provide a medium for  exchanging
    scientific  research  and technological achievements accomplished by
    the  international  community.  The focus for the reported work will
    be on research in artificial intelligence and neural networks.   The
    journal   will  address  issues  involving  solutions  of  real-life
    manufacturing,  defense,  management,  government   and   industrial
    problems which are too complex to  be  solved  through  conventional
    approaches  and  which require the simulation of intelligent thought
    processes, heuristics, application of knowledge, and distributed and
    parallel processing.  The integration of these  multiple  approaches
    in  solving  complex problems will be of particular importance.  The
    emphasis  of  the reported work will be on new and original research
    and technological developments rather than on reports concerning the
    applications of existing  technology  to  different  sets  of  data.
    Earlier  work  reported  in  these  fields  has  been   limited   in
    application  and  has  solved  simplified, structured problems which
    rarely  occur  in  real-life   situations.    Only   recently   have
    researchers  in the field started addressing real and complex issues
    applicable  to  difficult  problems.   This  journal  welcomes these
    developments  and  seeks  to  be  a  catalyst  in  disseminating the
    original   research   and   technological   achievements   of    the
    international community in these areas.  Topics of interest  include
    but are not limited to:

        Knowledge-Based Expert Systems    Knowledge Representation
        Knowledge Acquisition             Machine Learning
        Natural Language Processing       Qualitative & Temporal Reasoning
        Uncertainty Management            Qualitative Models
        Intelligent Database Systems      Pattern Recognition
        Vision                            Speech Recognition & Synthesis
        Intelligent Interfaces            Knowledge-Based Methodologies
        Autonomous Systems                Real-time Systems
        Intelligent Manufacturing         Sensor Fusion
        Planning & Scheduling             Monitoring & Prediction
        Analysis & Prediction             Decision Making
        Classification & Recognition      Modeling & Design
        Feature Extraction                Robotics &Controls

        Associative Memory                Learning Methodologies
        Self Organization                 Network Dynamics
        Adaptive Resonance                Combinational Optimization
