In a previous message, Juha expressed reservations regarding the need to focus on more than one train of thought simultaneously. I slightly touched upon this...

This reminds me of a problem i have dealt with in for a Demand prioritization system wherein there are many many customers placing an order for an item but...

My life dream has been to research A.I. (such a general term, I know) as my main "task" once I'm out of school. How do I get started in such an area -...
