    Abstract
    "Das Anliegen dieses Buches ist es, eine einführende Darstellung der Forschung in Künstlicher Intelligenz zu geben. Außerdem soll gezeigt werden, welche Rückwirkungen die Grundannahme der KI, unser Geist gleiche im wesentlichen einem Computer, auf unser Denken hat: Der ursprüngliche Bedeutungsgehalt von Begriffen wie Denken, Wissen und Verstehen werde fälschlich eingeschränkt, und die so entstehende reduktionistische Sichtweise beeinflusse deshalb das Selbstbild des Menschen sowie das soziale Miteinander auf bedenkliche Weise"

    Abstract
    Knowledge and Inference discusses an important problem for software systems: How do we treat knowledge and ideas on a computer and how do we use inference to solve problems on a computer? The book talks about the problems of knowledge and inference for the purpose of merging artificial intelligence and library science. The book begins by clarifying the concept of ""knowledge"" from many points of view, followed by a chapter on the current state of library science and the place of artificial intelligence in library science. Subsequent chapters cover central topics in the artificial intelligence: search and problem solving, methods of making proofs, and the use of knowledge in looking for a proof. There is also a discussion of how to use the knowledge system. The final chapter describes a popular expert system. It describes tools for building expert systems using an example based on Expert Systems-A Practical Introduction by P. Sell (Macmillian, 1985). This type of software is called an ""expert system shell."" This book was written as a textbook for undergraduate students covering only the basics but explaining as much detail as possible.

    Abstract
    Die künstliche Intelligenz hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten gewaltige Fortschritte gemacht. Setzt sich dieser Fortschritt in den nächsten Jahren mit der gleichen Geschwindigkeit fort, so werden unsere Personal Computer bis etwa zum Jahr 2015 die gleiche Leistungsfähigkeit wie das menschliche Gehirn erreicht haben. Die entscheidende Frage ist, ob diese Maschinen dann auch all die geistigen Fähigkeiten erwerben können, die als zutiefst menschlich empfunden werden. Im Zentrum steht dabei vor allem die Frage nach dem Bewusstsein. Gelingt es tatsächlich, Computer mit allen geistigen Fähigkeiten des Menschen auszustatten, so reicht unsere Fantasie kaum aus, die dadurch bedingten langfristigen Folgen für unsere Zivilisation vorauszusagen. Da die künstliche Intelligenz nicht den Einschränkungen des biologischen Lebens unterliegt, ist eine Entwicklung weit über die Fähigkeiten menschlicher Intelligenz hinaus denkbar. Dies schließt sogar eine potenzielle Unsterblichkeit ein - und somit den Abschied von der Wunschvorstellung, daß der Mensch die Krone der Schöpfung sei.

    Abstract
    Computer haben merkwürdige Eigenschaften. Sie erledigen eine Menge komplexer Aufgaben schneller, geauer und zuverlässiger als der Mensch. Mit relativ simplen Fähigkeiten, die wir intuitiv einsetzen, haben sie jedoch zu kämpfen. Und bei Verstehen, Intelligenz und Bewußtsein versagen sie völlig. Der menschliche Geist läßt sich prinzipiell rechnerisch nicht angemessen simulieren, behauptet der Autor. Dennoch sind es physikalische Prozesse im Gehirn, die das Bewußtsein ausmachen. Er fordert in der Fortsetzung der Diskussion um 'Computerdenken' eine neue, eine nicht-rechnerische 'Physik des Bewußtseins' für die Beschreibung des Geistes, die eine Art Verallgemeinerung der Quantenmechanik sein könnte. Er entwirft schließlich ein eigenens Modell für das Gehirn, in dem die heute bekannten Vorgänge nur die Schatten eines tieferen Phänomens, des Geistes sind

    Abstract
    In seinem Klassiker erläutert der international führende Mathematiker und Physiker, Sir Roger Penrose, seine These, dass die geistigen Fähigkeiten des menschlichen Gehirns nicht durch Berechnungen von Elektronengehirnen erreicht werden können - und provozierte eine neue KI-Debatte. . . . des Kaisers neue Kleider - steht auf dem Buchumschlag. Der renommierte englische Physiker Penrose will damit sichtbar machen, daß die Vertreter der Künstlichen Intelligenz (KI) nackt dastehen. Mit einem 400 Seiten langen Exkurs versucht er, ihre Behauptung zu widerlegen, daß Maschinen ebenso intelligent sein können wie Menschen. bild der wissenschaft Roger Penrose ( . . . ) gelang das Kunststück, mit dem formelgespickten Wälzer "The Emperors's New Mind" (auf deutsch jetzt unter dem geistlosen Titel "Computerdenken" erschienen) auf den US-Bestsellerlisten zu landen, ungeachtet aller Quanten-Ket-Vektoren und Einsteinscher Krüümungstensoren, mit denen der Autor seine Leser plagt. DER SPIEGEL Das erklärte Ziel dieses Buches ist, den Standpunkt einiger KI-Enthusiasten zu widerlegen, daß Computer irgendwann all das können, was menschliche Gehirne können - und sogar mehr. Aber der Leser merkt bald, dass Pnerose vor allem das Ziel verfolgt, einen Wegzur großen Synthese von klassischer Physik, Quantenphysik und Neurowissenschaften aufzuzeigen. John Horgan in Scientific American Wer "Computerdenken" liest (oder durcharbeitet), sollte nicht auf Antwort hoffen, darf aber neue Sichtwiesen und überraschende Interpretationen erwarten. Ein nahrhaftes Geschenk für naturwissenschaftlich Interessierte. Die Zeit Trotz des mathematichen Themas wurde The Emperor's New Mind prompt ein Bestseller und sein Autor zum bestgehaßten Mann der KI-Szene ( . . . ).

    Abstract
    Metadata research has emerged as a discipline cross-cutting many domains, focused on the provision of distributed descriptions (often called annotations) to Web resources or applications. Such associated descriptions are supposed to serve as a foundation for advanced services in many application areas, including search and location, personalization, federation of repositories and automated delivery of information. Indeed, the Semantic Web is in itself a concrete technological framework for ontology-based metadata. For example, Web-based social networking requires metadata describing people and their interrelations, and large databases with biological information use complex and detailed metadata schemas for more precise and informed search strategies. There is a wide diversity in the languages and idioms used for providing meta-descriptions, from simple structured text in metadata schemas to formal annotations using ontologies, and the technologies for storing, sharing and exploiting meta-descriptions are also diverse and evolve rapidly. In addition, there is a proliferation of schemas and standards related to metadata, resulting in a complex and moving technological landscape - hence, the need for specialized knowledge and skills in this area. The Handbook of Metadata, Semantics and Ontologies is intended as an authoritative reference for students, practitioners and researchers, serving as a roadmap for the variety of metadata schemas and ontologies available in a number of key domain areas, including culture, biology, education, healthcare, engineering and library science.
