Description
The field of Semantic Computing brings together those disciplines concerned with connecting the often vaguely formulated intentions of humans with computational content. Edited by the foremost experts in the subject, Semantic Computing provides an in-depth and thorough examination on the state-of-the-art of semantic computing technologies. This fundamental guide for graduate and senior undergraduate students, industrial managers, researchers, and engineers presents cross-disciplinary solutions and their value in solving real life computing and communication problems and examines the art, engineering techniques, and the synergy of this interdisciplinary field and its impact on futuristic applications.
Reviews / Votes
"Throughout the book, references to the primary literature enable further investigation of each individual topic. Semantic Computing is ideal for industrial managers, researchers, and engineers seeking to design the next generation of computing systems in order to better meet user needs. It is also recommended as a textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate-level semantic computing courses. The articles of this volume will not be reviewed individually."
