With the overload of data and automation in today's information technology world, intelligent software is needed to control and filter the resultant chaos. Object-oriented programming breaks software and information into functional units. Artificial intelligence and knowledge software distribute these units and enable them to communicate and negotiate with each other. In Rethinking Smart Objects Daniel Rasmus, a regular columnist for Object Magazine, and an accomplished knowledge engineer, has surveyed his own body of work and gathered the most important and relevant material from his contributions to the magazine. This is the first book to explain the integration of object technology and knowledge software development.

We live in a universe of data. Organizations have shifted their attention towards becoming more capable and efficient when handling data to create new business opportunities and obtain better results. Nowadays, decisions need to be data-driven, bringing us facts and not limit our decision with intuition, instinct, or common sense. Data also guides us with a more sophisticated understanding of market performance and how they generate more value for clients. Organizations that choose to become data-driven can start their journey today.
