Like no other book of its kind, this text presents a wide array of topics from both a theoretical and project-based approach including: introductory AI, KBS, Knowledge Management and Soft Computing.

Case studies present actual hybrid KBS with architectural design, experimental results, and output.

Mini-projects and exercises, found in each chapter, urge students to apply what they have learned.

Instructor's materials include PowerPoint Lecture Slides, answers to the exercises, and hints for practical project development.
