This book contains a selection of papers presented at the "European
Robotics and Intelligent Systems Conference" (EURISCON '91) held in
Corfu. Greece (June 23-28. 1991). It is devoted to the analysis.
design and applications of technological systems with built-in
intelligence achieved through appropriate blending of mathematical,
symbolic. sensing. computer processing. and feedback control
concepts. methods and software / hardware tools. System
intelligence includes human-like capabilities such as learning.
observation. perception. interpretation. reasoning. planning.
decision making. and action. Integrated intelligent decision and
control systems obey Saridis' prinCiple of Increasing Precision
with Decreasing Intelligence (IPDI). and have a hierarchical
structure with three basic levels. namely Organization.
Coordination. and Execution Levels. As we proceed from the
organization to the execution level. the precision about the jobs
to be completed increases and accordingly the intelligence reqUired
for these jobs decreases. As an example. it is mentioned here that
in an intelligent robotic system the organization tasks can be
realized using a neural net. the coordination tasks by a Petri net.
and the execution tasks by local sensors and actuators. The field
of intelligent systems is a new interdisciplinary field with
continuously increasing interest and expansion. It is actually the
outcome of the synergetic interaction and cooperation of classical
fields such as system theory. control theory. artificial
intelligence. operational research. information theory.
electronics. communications. and others.
