The Industrial Robot-a programmable device capable of executing autonomously a number of manipulations in a production line--opens new perspectives in terms of progress in the mechan ization of industrial production.

Shape grammars provide a means for the recursive specification of shapes. Where a phrase structura grammar is defined over an alphabet of symbols and generates a language of sequences of symbols, a shape grammar is defined over an alphabet of shapes and generates a language of shapes.

mathematisch-wissenschaftlicher Pro­ grammiersprachen wurde eine an FORTRAN angelehnte Version in BASIC gewahlt. Die entwickelten Datenverarbeitungsprogramme sind re­ lativ niedrig dimensioniert. Doch kann die Programmstruktu- auch in andere Programmiersprachen Ubersetzt - den jeweiligen Kapazitaten der Datenverarbeitungsanlagen leicht angepasst wer­ den.

This book is a presentation of my recent research work into the theory and applications of mathematical relations between finite sets.

This volume is the product of the Conference on Cognitive Process Models of Foreign Policy Decision-Making which was held in London at the Richardson Institute for Conflict and Peace Research from March 17-24, 1973.

The editors - all of whom are involved in social systems analysis - have made an attempt in this volume to pull together several aspects of systems science which appear to them to be of particular relevance to the study of social systems: Control systems, stochastic systems, pattern recog nition, fuzzy analysis, simulation, and behavioral models.

A four year old child sits in front of a heap of wooden blocks and tries to stand them in a straight line in order of size. He manages to build an ordered line, but leaves out one or two of the blocks: or perhaps he organises the blocks into two distinct lines and then finds himself unable to combine them.

The program was tested with more than 800 photographs The research has been done with main emphasis on the method of how to incorporate the picture structures into the picture anlysis program. Picture Analysis and Recognition- New Aspects When shown the pictures of the human face of Fig.

Since uncontrolled technological progress has become amenace to our well being and may actually threat our survival, it is necessary to learn to manage technological progress and direct innovative activities in such a manner that both private wants and social needs playa dominant role in determining the rate and direction of technical change.

,5 In all of these computer applications to organic chemistry, it has been necessary to devise some computer-compatible repres- tation of an organic molecule that is both canonical and c- venient for table look-ups.

0.1 Gaps in Optimizing A comparison of the levels of development of Operations Research, Simulation Technique and Optimal Control Theory appears to gain increasing interest.

1.1 Statement of the Problem This work describes a new and effective computer algorithm for detecting the contours of ribs in ehest radiographs.

Ambler et al ([Ambler)) describe experiments with simple shapes, including curved objects, using relations within a two-dimensional image. Work on outdoor scene analysis is also concerned with non-polyhedral objects ([Bajcsy], [Yakimovsky]), but again no attention has been paid to shape analysis.

One of the objects of this book was to facilitate communication by bringing toge ther different viewpoints and coloring them from a common viewpoint. Since the romanian version appeared, at the very beginning of 1974, there has been a rapid growth in the literature of fuzzy modelling.

1.0 2 information structures, and the runtime efficiency available using lower level data structures. Using that information, the system selects efficient (in terms of time and space) low level implementations for the user's information structures from a fixed library of information structure representations.

pr~geordneter mathematischer Strukturen systematisch und von Grund auf darzusteLLen. Dies geschieht im TeiL I des Buches.
