This book presents the result of 30 years'' work on the original material related to OC thinking machinesOCO, a subject initiated by the author and his colleagues. It is based on the ability of the computer to represent the hierarchical procedure of task conception and execution found in human beings. It is arranged in three levels representing the structure of organizational systems: organization, coordination and execution. Hierarchically Intelligent Machines can serve as a guide to modern intelligent robots. Contents: Machine Intelligence, Knowledge and Precision; Concepts and Definitions; Entropy and the Principle of Increasing Precision with Decreasing Intelligence (IDPI); The Analytic Formulation of Hierarchically Intelligent Machines; Hierarchically Intelligent Control: The Organization Level; Hierarchically Intelligent Control: The Coordination Level; Hierarchically Intelligent Control: The Execution Level; Hierarchically Intelligent Control: Application to Robotic Systems; Intelligent Manufacturing. Readership: Researchers in computer engineering."
