INTELLIGENT MODELING, DIAGNOSIS AND CONTROL OF MANUFACTURING PROCESSES

edited by B-T Chu & S-S Chen (University of North Carolina, Charlotte)

This volume demonstrates that the key to the modeling, diagnosis and control of the next generation manufacturing processes is to integrate knowledge-based systems with traditional techniques. An up-to-date study is given here of this relatively recent development.

The book is for those working primarily with traditional techniques and those working in the knowledge-based systems field. Both sets of readers will find it to be a source of many specific ideas about the integration of knowledge-based systems with traditional techniques, and carrying a wealth of useful references.

Readership: Computer scientists and engineers.


"This book can be taken as an introduction to the people who may not be familiar with these issues. It also provides some promotion to further research activities in this area."
