Hi to all.
I have to write an essay about 2500 word about emergent technologies within the fild of artificial intelligence. Please give any ideas or similarly papers you maybe have. Or any web pages, or just ideas.Please help me ! :)
Thank you to all.

Here are a few ideas, which are relatively new and at least loosely related to A.I.:

1. Artificial Immune Systems
2. Smart Dust
3. Augmented Reality
4. Biological Neural Interfacing
5. Biometric Identification

If you require assistance finding information on these topics, write again.

Thank you for your responce.;
I think that i will select Biological Neural Interfacing but i need some information from the first steps of AI on Biological Neural Interfacing until now and maybe some information about the future of AI in Biological Neural Interfacing. Do you know where can i find all these informations?
thank you for your interest, you save my day.

Here are some on-line references for biological neural interfacing:

Thank you very much for your interest i will ask for a last favour. If it possible and not time constrain for you please send me some links also about :

Artificial Immune Systems and smart dust

Sure thing. Searching just on Teoma (www.teoma.com) reveals the following:
