Synopsis

The tremendous growth in the availability of inexpensive computing power and easy availability of computers have generated tremendous interest in the design and imp- mentation of Complex Systems. Computer-based solutions offer great support in the design of Complex Systems. Furthermore, Complex Systems are becoming incre- ingly complex themselves. This research book comprises a selection of state-of-the-art contributions to topics dealing with Complex Systems in a Knowledge-based En- ronment. Complex systems are ubiquitous. Examples comprise, but are not limited to System of Systems, Service-oriented Approaches, Agent-based Systems, and Complex Distributed Virtual Systems. These are application domains that require knowledge of engineering and management methods and are beyond the scope of traditional systems. The chapters in this book deal with a selection of topics which range from unc- tainty representation, management and the use of ontological means which support and are large-scale business integration. All contributions were invited and are based on the recognition of the expertise of the contributing authors in the field. By colle- ing these sources together in one volume, the intention was to present a variety of tools to the reader to assist in both study and work. The second intention was to show how the different facets presented in the chapters are complementary and contribute towards this emerging discipline designed to aid in the analysis of complex systems.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The book presents the latest research on the theory, models and applications of complex systems in knowledge-based environment. The amount of information is increasing at an exponential rate. Thus, our systems are getting complex day by day. For example the world wide web carries practically infinite information. The real challenge is to reinvent theory to deal with complex systems. The provisional contents in this book will be based on the theory and practical applications of complex systems in knowledge-based environment. The contents will be based on but not limited to: - Advanced Knowledge-Based paradigms in complex systems; - Information models and architectures of complex systems; - Intelligent agents in complex systems design; - Multi-media systems and practical applications.
