Handbook of Research on Artificial Intelligence in Industrial
Information Systems: Methodologies, Frameworks and Emerging Technologies
Editor: Xuan F. Zha, Ph.D
Introduction: Over the last decade information
technology (IT) has had a profound impact on the evolution of industrial
enterprises
as fully integrated entities. We have witnessed major efforts led by some of
the largest multinationals to utilize IT to achieve solutions for advancing
industrial controls and automation, as well as industrial enterprise
integration. With the continuous advancement of AI and IT, intelligent
systems can be beneficially applied to many industrial IT fields. Integrated
intelligent
information systems are increasingly gaining better acceptance and applications
for improving effectiveness and efficiency of industrial
units and enterprises. In such an
ever-evolving environment, teachers, researchers and professionals of the AI
and IT disciplines need access to the most current information about their
concepts,
issues, trends and technologies as well as their research and applications in
industrial information systems. The Handbook of Research on Artificial
Intelligence in Industrial Information Systems will be most helpful as it
provides comprehensive coverage and definitions of the most important issues,
concepts, methodologies, frameworks, emerging technologies and future trends of
intelligent industrial information systems. This important new publication will
be distributed worldwide among academic and professional institutions and will
be instrumental in providing researchers, scholars, students and professionals
access to the latest knowledge related to AI and information science and
technology. Contributions to this
important publication will be made by scholars throughout the world with
notable research portfolios and expertise.
Coverage: The Handbook of Research on Artificial
Intelligence in Industrial Information Systems will provide a compendium of
terms, definitions and explanations of concepts, processes and acronyms.
Additionally, this volume will feature
chapters (8,000-10,000 words) authored by leading experts offering an in-depth
description of key terms and concepts related to different areas, issues and
trends in information
science and technologies in modern organizations worldwide. Potential Chapter
