Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are now being used by the practicing engineer to solve a whole range of hitherto intractable problems. This journal provides an international forum for rapid publication of work describing the practical application of AI methods in all branches of engineering.

Focal points of the journal include, but are not limited to innovative applications of:

• Real-time intelligent automation, and their associated supporting methodologies and techniques, including control theory and industrial informatics,
• Architectures, algorithms and techniques for distributed AI systems, including multi-agent based control and holonic control,
• Decision-support systems,
• Aspects of reasoning: abductive, case-based, model-based, non-monotonic, incomplete, progressive and approximate reasoning,
• Applications of chaos theory and fractals,
• Metaheuristics and their applications in intelligent automation: Genetic Algorithms, Ant Colony Optimization, Particle Swarm Optimization, etc.,
• Knowledge processing, knowledge elicitation and acquisition, knowledge representation, knowledge compaction, knowledge bases, expert systems,
• Neural networks, fuzzy systems, neuro-fuzzy systems,
• Perception, e.g. image processing, pattern recognition, vision systems, tactile systems, speech recognition and synthesis,
• Aspects of software engineering, e.g. intelligent programming environments, verification and validation of AI-based software, software and hardware architectures for the real-time use of AI techniques, safety and reliability,
• Intelligent fault detection, fault analysis, diagnostics and monitoring,
• Self-organizing, emerging or bio-inspired system,
• Industrial experiences in the application of the above techniques, e.g. case studies or benchmarking exercises.

Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence publishes:
• Survey papers/tutorials.
• Contributed papers — detailed expositions of new research or applications.
• Case studies or software reviews — evaluative and descriptive reviews of existing available AI software systems, discussing the experience gained and lessons learnt from using or developing AI systems for engineering applications.
• IFAC EAAI Forum — problems arising from engineering practice, needing to be solved by somebody; solutions to problems discussed in this forum or elsewhere; critiques of a position or claim found in the literature. 

Special Issue on Artificial Intelligence for High-Performance Computing systems
提出日: 2024-06-15

High-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) are increasingly being used together to solve complex problems. On the one hand HPC can be used to accelerate the training and deployment of machine learning (ML) models on HPC systems, while AI can also be used to optimize the performance of HPC systems themselves.Designing and implementing algorithms efficiently exploiting such complex and heterogeneous systems opens numerous research challenges. The aim of the « AI for HPC systems » special issue is thus to collect works addressing those, including (but not limited to) AI algorithms on GPU, TPU, FPGA; AI for energy efficient HPC and Cloud systems; real world applications of AI on HPC systems.
