AI Snippets

The Academy of Computer Science and Software Engineering (ACSSE) brings you an exhibition of Artificial Intelligence related vignettes. This includes a slideshow giving an overview of the International Federation for Information Processing’s Technical Committee 12 (IFIP TC. 12 – Artificial Intelligence). Senior South African academics and researchers are invited to be considered to join a working group in a domain within which they have a proven track record. Details are available on the TC12 website at: http://ifiptc12.org/


There is also a contribution from the committee’s co-chair Prof. Nenad Stefanovic related to AI matters in Serbia. Further contributions include videos relating to research and tutorials compiled by staff within the Academy.
