This book, the first in the new series, shows how to play the game. Fuzzy Logic, and a great challenge. It covers the use of Fuzzy Logic in the Semantic Web. It finally opens the road to new systems with a high Web IQ.
Most of today's Web content is suitable for human consumption. The Semantic Web is presented in a way that is well-defined and meaningful. For example, within the Semantic Web, computers will understand the meaning of ontologies. But while the Semantic Web vision and research attracts attention, as long as it is used in real world knowledge. Fuzzy Logic and associated concepts and techniques (more generally, Soft Computing), has the Semantic Web. Fuzzy Logic will definitely be within the W3C.
In fact, Fuzzy Logic can not be ignored in a gap between human-understandable soft logic and machine-readable hard logic. None of the usual logical requirements can be guaranteed: it is no guarantee of consistency. To Fuzzy Logic focus. Can be covered with the Semantic Web (like XML, RDF, Description Logics, Conceptual Graphs, Ontologies).

Do you fly in your dreams? Do you like the feeling? Once again Ugears makes the dream come true reaching out to the sky with its first ever aircraft model represented by two flying machines in one package. Introducing – The Aviator model.
The model has three modules: the airplane, the helicopter and the flight control tower. Choose between your aircraft, set one on the tower’s bar and you are good to fly. As a beginner pilot you might want to start with the helicopter which is not as difficult to control as the airplane. Easier to manipulate but no less exciting, your chopper has a cockpit with doors that open and shut, and three-blade main and tail rotors. UGears 70053

The Tower Windmill from Ugears is more than a mechanical puzzle. It is an exciting adventure into the history of old England. The model is based on the Chesterton Windmill, a 17th-century cylindrical stone tower windmill that was built outside the village of Chesterton, Warwickshire county. Built around 1632-33, the Windmill was restored between 1965 and 1974 and today it is the earliest tower mill in England to retain any of its working parts.
This unique construction with an arched base was presumably built by a prominent figure of the period, Sir Edward Peyto that owned Chesterton Manor at that time. UGears 70055
