商品簡介
A core or supplementary textbook and a reference for practicing engineers and researchers describing the principles, key issues, and applications of agent technology in an area where it has not previously received a lot of attention. Scientists based in Canada and France describe concurrent engineering design and manufacturing, discuss key issues in developing agent-based versions of it, review relevant systems, and introduce methodology and tools. They note that the technology they describe will remain valid as concurrent engineering continues to evolve into collaborative engineering. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
