The book outlines selected projects conducted under the supervision
of the author. Moreover, it discusses significant relations between
Interactive Granular Computing (IGrC) and numerous dynamically
developing scientific domains worldwide, along with features
characteristic of the author's approach to IGrC. The results
presented are a continuation and elaboration of various aspects of
Wisdom Technology, initiated and developed in cooperation with
Professor Andrzej Skowron. Based on the empirical findings from
these projects, the author explores the following areas: (a)
understanding the causes of the theory and practice gap problem
(TPGP) in complex systems engineering (CSE);(b) generalizing
computing models of complex adaptive systems (CAS) (in particular,
natural computing models) by constructing an interactive granular
computing (IGrC) model of networks of interrelated interacting
complex granules (c-granules), belonging to a single agent and/or
to a group of agents; (c) developing methodologies based on the
IGrC model to minimize the negative consequences of the TPGP. The
book introduces approaches to the above issues, using the proposed
IGrC model. In particular, the IGrC model refers to the key
mechanisms used to control the processes related to the
implementation of CSE projects. One of the main aims was to develop
a mechanism of IGrC control over computations that model a
project's implementation processes to maximize the chances of its
success, while at the same time minimizing the emerging risks. In
this regard, the IGrC control is usually performed by means of
properly selected and enforced (among project participants) project
principles. These principles constitute examples of c-granules,
expressed by complex vague concepts (represented by c-granules
too). The c-granules evolve with time (in particular, the meaning
of the concepts is also subject of change). This methodology is
illustrated using project principles applied by the author during
the implementation of the POLTAX, AlgoTradix, Merix, and Excavio
projects outlined in the book.

In today s society the issue of security has become a crucial
one. The use of knowledge-based technology in security applications
emerges with important applications in monitoring, control, crisis,
and rescue management. This volume contains extended and improved
versions of selected contributions presented at the International
Workshop "Monitoring, Security and Rescue Techniques in Multiagent
Systems" (MSRAS 2004) held in Plock, Poland, June 7-9, 2004,
bringing together the world s leading researchers in the
field."
