General information
Autonomous intelligent systems can be described as intelligent
entities that are capable of independent action in dynamic,
unpredictable environments. This is a very fast growing research area
attracting the attention of many researchers around the globe. The aim
of the International Congress on Autonomous Intelligent Systems (ICAIS)
is to bring the researchers, system developers and users both from
industry and academia together to exchange their views and receive the
very latest information on the on-going research and development. This
will be carried out through a series of keynote addresses, technical
sessions, workshops and exhibitions.
