This volume contains the elaborated and harmonized versions of
seven lectures given at the first Advanced Course in Artificial
Intelligence, held in Vignieu, France, in July 1985. Most of them
were written in tutorial form; the book thus provides an extremely
valuable guide to the fundamental aspects of AI. In the first part,
Delgrande and Mylopoulos discuss the concept of knowledge and its
representation. The second part is devoted to the processing of
knowledge. The contribution by Huet shows that both computation and
inference or deduction are just different aspects of the same
phenomenon. The chapter written by Stickel gives a thorough and
knowledgeable introduction to the most important aspects of
deduction by some form of resolution. The kind of reasoning that is
involved in inductive inference problem solving (or programming)
from examples, and in learning, is covered by Biermann. The
tutorial by Bibel covers the more important forms of knowledge
processing that might play a significant role in common sense
reasoning. The third part of the book focuses on logic programming
and functional programming. Jorrand presents the language FP2,
where term rewriting forms the basis for the semantics of both
functional and parallel programming. In the last chapter, Shapiro
gives an overview of the current state of concurrent PROLOG.
