Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation, 2001 International Conference AISC 2000 Madrid, Spain, July 17-19, 2000. Revised Papers Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence Series

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation, AISC 2000, held in Madrid, Spain in July 2000. The 17 revised full papers presented together with three invited papers were carefully reviewed and revised for inclusion in the book. Among the topics addressed are automated theorem proving, logical reasoning, mathematical modeling of multi-agent systems, expert systems and machine learning, computational mathematics, engineering, and industrial applications.
