nuclear science and technology, the 20th PBNC was held in Beijing
and the theme of this meeting was "Nuclear: Powering the
Development of the Pacific Basin and the World". It brought
together outstanding nuclear scientist and technical experts,
senior industry executives, senior government officials and
international energy organization leaders from all across the
world. The book serves as a useful reference not only for the
professionals and public to know more about nuclear industry, but
also for policymakers to adjust or make energy strategies.

Can agents be intelligent without emotions? Is it possible to
incorporate emotions into agents? If possible, how can we do that?
Can we build high EQ (emotional quotients) agents which have better
performance than rational agents? We believe that, whether for
human-like or non-human-like agents, the effect of emotions on
decision-making cannot be ignored, because high EQ agents can be
built to have better performance in complex dynamic environments
than purely rational agents. Taking into account the incompleteness
of emotion theories and emotional differences among individuals,
this book describes EBDI, a common architecture for emotional
agents, which specifies a separate emotion mechanism within an
agent. It reflects the practical reasoning process, and one can
select and apply part of an emotion theory into the architecture as
needed. Sample agents in Tileworld are presented and the results
show that an EBDI agent can have better performance than
traditional BDI agents. This book also describes how to design
emotional agents (EBDI agents) in negotiation, which has been a
subject of central interest in Distributed AI, economics and
political science.
Li Longyun's five-act play, "Small Well Lane (Xiaojing hutong), "
is a spoken drama published in Beijing in 1981. With a cast of
nearly thirty characters of different social roles and individual
persona, the play provides a vivid sense of how a group of working
class Beijing residents living in a courtyard compound in a back
alley, or hutong, named "Small Well Lane" experienced China's
revolution from 1949 to 1980. It beautifully records the art of
talking and living among Beijing back alley folk and provides a
vivid contrast to the concerns and lives of China's elites.
This authoritative translation by Hong Jiang and Timothy Cheek is
accompanied by notes and annotations to help readers not familiar
with China's modern history. A special appendix and ten photographs
bring to life the culture of Beijing's famous back alleys.
This edition of "Small Well Lane" provides readers, and especially
students of modern Chinese history, politics, and literature, with
a compelling story of the human experience of Mao's revolution in
China. It will be of interest to students of modern China and
specialists in Chinese history and literature as well as to the
general reader.
Li Longyun is a professional playwright working at the Beijing
People's Art Theater. Hong Jiang is Assistant Professor of Chinese
Language and Literature, Colorado College. Timothy Cheek is
Associate Professor of History, Colorado College.
