It is widely recognized that a professional engineer needs to be aware of a range of issues
much wider than the mere technical knowledge necessary to practice the chosen
engineering discipline. The Engineering Council, for example, requires that the formation
of a professional engineer should include, amongst other things,

The concept of fuzzy sets is one of the most fundamental and influential tools in computational intelligence. Fuzzy sets can provide solutions to a broad range of problems of control, pattern classification, reasoning, planning, and computer vision. This book bridges the gap that has developed between theory and practice. The authors explain...
Although speech is the most natural form of communication between humans, most people find using speech to communicate with machines anything but natural. Drawing from psychology, human-computer interaction, linguistics, and communication theory, Practical Speech User Interface Design provides a comprehensive yet concise...
Current search paradigms for the Web, direct access through search engines and
navigational access via static taxonomies, have recently been strongly criticized.
A third paradigm, dynamic taxonomies or faceted search, is gaining acceptance to
the extent that it is now the de facto standard in product selection for e-commerce.
This new...
