About this book

Edited volume discusses artificial/computational sapience and sapient systems from a diverse set of contributors

Organised into seven sections so that the reader is guided through the subject in a structured and comprehensive manner

Concepts are formalized and extended, as well as compared and differentiated from their counterparts in the artificial intelligent and intelligence systems disciplines

Applicability of developed concepts are illustrated thoroughly

This novel state-of-the-art research volume is the first to explore computational sapience and sapient (wise) systems

Of utmost importance to all researchers and graduate students in the field
