The book provides a full explanation of the concepts and theories of intelligent agents and agent-based systems. Providing a comprehensive theoretical background, the author covers modern artificial intelligence topics such as ontologies, neural networks, chaos theory, fuzzy logics and genetic algorithms. Finally, the author details how the iJADK toolkit (intelligent Java agent development kit for intelligent e-business application) can be used in the design and implementation phases of real applications. The book can be adopted as the main textbook for courses on intelligent agents, advanced topics in Al or contemporary Al technologies; application developers can use it as a complete technical guide and reference manual for the iJADK toolkit; and researchers can use it as a comprehensive reference book on modern Al techniques, and will benefit particularly from the book`s extensive literature survey.
