Date: 14-AUG-95 A list of books compiled by Josef Benedikt for the FLAI '93 (Fuzzy Logic in Artificial Intelligence) conference's book exhibition is available by anonymous ftp from ftp.cs.cmu.edu:/user/ai/pubs/bibs/ as the file fuzzy-bib.text. A short 1985 fuzzy systems tutorial by James Brule is available as http://life.anu.edu.au/complex_systems/fuzzy.html An ascii copy is also available in the gzipped tar file ftp.cs.cmu.edu:/user/ai/areas/fuzzy/doc/intro/tutorial.tgz Wolfgang Slany has compiled a BibTeX bibliography on fuzzy scheduling and related fuzzy techniques, including constraint satisfaction, linear programming, optimization, benchmarking, qualitative modeling, decision making, petri-nets, production control, resource allocation, planning, design, and uncertainty management. It is available by anonymous ftp from mira.dbai.tuwien.ac.at:/pub/slany/ as the file fuzzy-scheduling.bib.Z (or .ps.Z), or by email from listproc@vexpert.dbai.tuwien.ac.at with GET LISTPROC fuzzy-scheduling.bib in the message body.
