This course will give a practical introduction into how to use modelling and simulation tools, how to decide on an appropriate level of abstraction when modelling, and how to extend the simulation tools when they do not quite cover your research interest. www.anc.ed.ac.uk /school   (278 words)

НЕЙРОИНФОРМАТИКА-99   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26) For me here and now neuroinformatics is a direction of science and information technology, dealing with development and study of the methods for solution of problems by means of neural networks. In my opinion, the most important achievement of neuroinformatics over the last decade in the sector of intellectual services is systematic use of neural networks for extraction of knowledge from data. In order to represent the field of action in modern neuroinformatics as a whole, it is useful to draw a bird's-eye view of the main directions of investigations. www.ece.umr.edu /acil/conferences/O2_1.htm   (3473 words)
