Intelligent Java Applications for the Internet and Intranets - Softcover

Internet tools and applications frequently use artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to enable special features and reduce development time. This book allows you to apply these powerful AI design techniques to your Java programming. Focusing on intelligent systems, it provides the introductory AI material that Java programmers need to create Internet and Intranet applications including on-line games, search tools, and data collection tools. A variety of detailed examples are provided to illustrate how these applications are used in real-world software projects, and to guide you in developing applications of your own. AI concepts are explained in detail making the book accessible to any Java programmer. An accompanying CD-ROM lets readers experiment with source code for the Java classes developed in the book. The CD-ROM includes many immediately useful Java class libraries and four complete applications that use the Java class libraries. Complete example programs cover a range of applications including an arcade style game, a handwriting recognition system, a system that answers questions about ancient history, and an information retrieval application.
