However, a substantial amount of research is still needed to solve many difficult problems before real-time expert systems can enhance current monitoring and control systems. In this article, we examine how the real-time problem domain is significantly different from those domains which have traditionally been solved by expert systems. The survey is divided into three areas: applications, tools, and theoretic issues. From the results of the survey, we identify a set of real-time research issues that have yet to be solved and point out limitations of current tools for real-time problems.

The second Natural Language Understanding and Logic Programming (NLULP) Workshop was held on 17-19 August 1987 at Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, (the first NLULP workshop was held three years ago in Rennes, France).

I compare the big problems studied in artificial intelligence and related fields in order to understand some major changes -- both internal and external -- recently suffered by AI. The comparison finds AI with few problems to call its own, and I identify some further major changes that may occur soon.

The Computing Research Laboratory (CRL) at New Mexico State University is a center for research in artificial intelligence and cognitive science. Specific areas of research include the human-computer interface, natural language understanding, connectionism, knowledge representation and reasoning, computer vision, robotics, and graph theory. This article describes the ongoing projects at CRL.

An informal workshop on concurrent logic programming, metaprogramming, and open systems was held at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) on 8-9 September 1987 with support from the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence. The 50 workshop participants came from the Japanese Fifth Generation Project (ICOT), the Weizmann Institute of Sci-ence in Israel, Imperial College in London, the Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Stanford University, the Mas-sachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), Cal Tech, Science University of Tokyo, Melbourne University, Calgary University, University of Wisconsin, Case Western Reserve, University of Oregon, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Quintus, Symbolics, IBM, and Xerox PARC. No proceedings were generated; instead, participants distributed copies of drafts, slides, and recent papers.

The fundamental observation we will hands ask, have all the big ideas gone? This is, put field is a real change with several causes, differently, a traditional thesis of artificial and not simply an illusion. Two factors intelligence, namely that the immediately spring to mind: hardware may vary but the basic problems of intelligent action remain the - To some extent, it reflects the maturation same. For example, one big problem is of the field. This notion permeates all of problems are solved, the remaining of artificial intelligence's relatives but problems are harder, making progress less so artificial intelligence itself.
