Sommario/riassunto

This volume contains the contributions to the Joint German/Austrian Conference on Artificial Intelligence, KI 2001, which comprises the 24th German and the 9th Austrian Conference on Artificial Intelligence. They are divided into the following categories: – 2 contributions by invited speakers of the conference; – 29 accepted technical papers, of which 5 where submitted as application papers and 24 as papers on foundations of AI; – 4 contributions by participants of the industrial day, during which companies working in the field presented their AI applications. After a long period of separate meetings, the German and Austrian Societies ¨ for Artificial Intelligence, KI and OGAI, decided to hold a joint conference in Vienna in 2001. The two societies had previously held one joint conference. This took place in Ottstein, a small town in Lower Austria, in 1986. At that time, the rise of expert system technology had also renewed interest in AI in general, with quite some expectations for future advances regarding the use of AI techniques in applications pervading many areas of our daily life. Since then fifteen years have passed, and we may want to comment, at the beginning of a new century, on the progress that has been made in this direction.

Sommario/riassunto

Lo auténtico, como lo autóctono, aparece vinculado a la localidad, pero la globalización la ha vaciado de gran parte de su población autóctona, ha vuelto obsoletas sus formas productivas y ha modificado su estilo de vida. La repuesta de las poblaciones locales consiste a menudo en la creación o recreación de formas “tradicionales, “auténticas” en ámbitos tales como el patrimonio, los museos, las fiestas, la arquitectura, la gastronomía, y la identidad. Este proceso no ha de ser considerado como una reacción tradicionalista ni nostálgica, sino más bien como el reflejo del fuerte compromiso de las localidades con las fuerzas de la globalización. Este libro es consecuencia de los resultados de una investigación etnográfica sobre la interacción entre procesos globales y locales en diversas áreas de montaña de Cataluña y en una del País Vasco, en las que se producen procesos de terciarización de la economía, de patrimonialización de la naturaleza y de la cultura, debidas al influjo del mercado, de las políticas de la Unión Europea, del estado, y de las demandas de los habitantes de las ciudades.
