This book is a collection of some of the papers that were presented
during a NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on "Intelligent
Systems: Safety, Reliability and Maintainability Issues" that was
held in Kusadasi, Turkey during August 24- 28, 1992. Attendance at
this workshop was mainly by invitation only, drawing people
internationally representing industry, government and the academic
community. Many of the participants were internationally recognized
leaders in the topic of the workshop. The purpose of the ARW was to
bring together a highly distinguished group of people with the
express purpose of debating where the issues of safety, reliability
and maintainability place direct and tangible constraints on the
development of intelligent systems. As a consequence, one of the
major debating points in the ARW was the definition of
intelligence, intelligent behaviour and their relation to complex
dynamic systems. Two major conclusions evolved from the ARW are: 1.
A continued need exists to develop formal, theoretical frameworks
for the architecture of such systems, together with a reflection on
the concept of intelligence. 2. There is a need to focus greater
attention to the role that the human play in controlling
intelligent systems. The workshop began by considering the typical
features of an intelligent system. The complexity associated with
multi-resolutional architectures was then discussed, leading to the
identification of a necessity for the use of a combinatorial
synthesis/approach. This was followed by a session on human
interface issues.
