Elsevier Adaptive Intelligent Systems: Proceedings of the BANKAI workshop, Brussels, Belgium, 12-14 October 1992

Dedicated to the consideration of advanced IT technologies and their financial applications, this volume contains contributions from an international group of system developers and managers from academia, financial industry and their suppliers - all actively involved in the development and practical introduction to these technologies into banking and financial organizations. Concentrating on real experience and present needs rather than theoretical possibilities or limited prototype applications, it is hoped the publication will give a better insight into advanced IT practice and potential as it currently exists and motivate today's developers and researchers. In addition to the discussion of a wide range of technologies and approaches to ensure adaptivity, three other major topics are exlored in the book - neural networks, classical software engineering techniques and rule-based systems.
