This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the 13th International Conference on AI, Simulation, and Planning in High Autonomy Systems, AIS 2004, held in Jeju Island, Korea in October 2004.
The 74 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited keynote papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 170 submissions; after the conference, the papers went through another round of revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on modeling and simulation methodologies, intelligent control, computer and network security, HLA and simulator interoperation, manufacturing, agent-based modeling, DEVS modeling and simulation, parallel and distributed modeling and simulation, mobile computer networks, Web-based simulation and natural systems, modeling and simulation environments, AI and simulation, component-based modeling, watermarking and semantics, graphics, visualization and animation, and business modeling.
The AI, Simulation and Planning in High Autonomy Systems (AIS) 2004 Conference was held on Jeju Island, Korea, October 4–6, 2004. AIS 2004 was the thirteenth in the series of biennial conferences on AI and simulation. The conference provided the major forum for researchers, scientists and engineers to present the state-of-the-art research results in the theory and applications of AI, simulation and their fusion. We were pleased that the conference attracted a large number of high-quality research papers that were of benefit to the communities of interest.
