DESCRIPTION:
This book elaborates in detail the numerous conflicting points of view on many aspects of this multifaceted, controversial subject. From the reviews:"The Turing Test gives a comprehensive, in-depth and contemporary assessment of this classic topic in artificial intelligence. … This volume is a valuable reading for research on the Turing test and for teaching undergraduate and graduate students in philosophy, computer science, and cognitive science." (Jörg Desel, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1040 (9), 2004)"Borger and Stark do an admirable job of documention and extending a method for bridging the considerable gap between theoretical system models, which often only allow for toy systems to be modeled and require proofs to be done only by hand, and real-life systems and practices." (Shrisha, Rao, Ceda Rapids, IA, Computing Reviews, February, 2004)

Great stuff Haraldur D. Thorvaldsson This is a well written good about an interesting, sensible formalism. I haven't tried using any of it in my line of work yet, but I'm pretty sure I will. Abstract State Machines (ASMs) are based on guarded, synchronously concurrent state transitions, with state effectively defined as a (finite) set of named, finite relations. The core . Embedded Fart said Fashionable Pseudo-Scientific Nonsense. I would like to most sincerely warn the prospective buyers before they waste their time and money on this book. The whole "science" of "abstract state machines" seems just a big hoax in the category ridiculed in the book "Fashionable Nonsense: Postmodern Intellectuals' Abuse of Science" by Alan Sokal.
