This book addresses the use of data mining for smarter, more efficient agents, as well as the challenge of generating intelligence from data while transferring it to a separate, possibly autonomous, software entity. Following a brief review of data mining and agent technology fields, the book presents a methodology for developing multi-agent systems, describes available open-source tools, and demonstrates the application of the methodology on three different cases.
AGENT INTELLIGENCE THROUGH DATA MINING is designed for a professional audience composed of researchers and practitioners in industry. This volume is also suitable for graduate-level students in computer science.

In September 2002 a 29-year-old Iraqi man living in Baghdad began publishing a diary on the internet. He adopted the name Salam Pax and wrote in complete secrecy. He was taking a terrible risk in writing freely about the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein. As war approached, millions around the world found their way to Salam's daily weblog to read his funny and frightening reports of life in a city crippled by fear and slipping into chaos. Then the bombs began to fall... There's something quite remarkable about the experience of reading Salam Pax, especially for those who read him during the war. Here is an unedited voice from another culture, writing in a way that instantly reminds us how much alike we are, across different cultures and continents. The Baghdad Blog was published simultaneously in Australia by Text Publishing, in the UK by Atlantic Books and in the USA by Grove/Atlantic.

This textbook mainly addresses beginners and readers with a basic knowledge of object-oriented programming languages like Java or C#, but with little or no modeling or software engineering experience – thus reflecting the majority of students in introductory courses at universities. Using UML, it introduces basic modeling concepts in a highly precise manner, while refraining from the interpretation of rare special cases. After a brief explanation of why modeling is an indispensable part of software development, the authors introduce the individual diagram types of UML (the class and object diagram, the sequence diagram, the state machine diagram, the activity diagram, and the use case diagram), as well as their interrelationships, in a step-by-step manner. The topics covered include not only the syntax and the semantics of the individual language elements, but also pragmatic aspects, i.e., how to use them wisely at various stages in the software development process. To this end, the work is complemented with examples that were carefully selected for their educational and illustrative value. Overall, the book provides a solid foundation and deeper understanding of the most important object-oriented modeling concepts and their application in software development. An additional website offers a complete set of slides to aid in teaching the contents of the book, exercises and further e-learning material.
