Each of the eleven chapters is divided into three sections: ** a section which introduces the technique ** a section which develops a low-level (POP-11) implementation ** a section which develops a high-level (Prolog) implementation Comprehensive yet practical, this book will be of great value to those experienced in AI, as well as to students with some programming background and academics and professionals looking for a precise discussion of artificial intelligence through SEARCH. --This text refers to the hardcover edition of this title.
