Today’s robots are used mainly as advanced tools and do not have any capability of taking moral responsibility. However, autonomous, learning intelligent systems are developing rapidly, resulting in a new division of tasks between humans and robots. The biggest worry about autonomous intelligent systems seems to be the fear of human loss of control and robots running amok. We argue that for all...

one of the most important aspects of software project management is the estimation of cost and time required for running information system. therefore, software managers try to carry estimation based on behavior, properties, and project restrictions. software cost estimation refers to the process of development requirement prediction of software system. various kinds of effort estimation patter...

in this paper, the advantage of reinforcement learning to develop a new traffic shaper is invoked in order to obtain a reasonable utilization of bandwidth while preventing traffic overload in other parts of the network. this leads to a reduction in the total number of packet droppings in the whole network. the method is implemented in a novel proposed intelligent simulation environment. keeping...

deregulation policy has caused some changes in the concepts of power systems reliability assessment and enhancement. in this paper, generation reliability is considered, and a method for its assessment using intelligent systems is proposed. also, because of power market and generators’ forced outages stochastic behavior, monte carlo simulation is used for reliability evaluation. generation reli...

Intelligent environments, in general, represent the future evolutionary development step for the real world environment. However, to achieve their aims, an intelligent system is required to collect data from the surrounding environment. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is one of the technologies that extensively used to collect such data. It has been used in many applications such as surveillance...

This paper describes a knowledge-based architecture, called curriculum tree, for building intelligent tutoring systems. Primarily based on the subject domain knowledge structure, the architecture naturally incorporates the global curriculum planning and monitors the local learning activities. The curriculum tree can also be viewed as a structure of various teaching knowledge at different stages...
