Introduction
This course will include the essential elements of artificial intelligence (AI); knowledge representation, search techniques, heuristic, typical problems and solution methodologies which constitute the less-than-precise definition of AI which exists today. Current practical uses of AI in information management and decision-support systems (such as intelligent agents, neural networks, and search engines) will be discussed and their relative merits/success rates evaluated. A potential application will be proposed and presented by the students
