The papers in this volume comprise the refereed proceedings of the First Int- national Conference on Computer and Computing Technologies in Agriculture (CCTA 2007), in Wuyishan, China, 2007. This conference is organized by China Agricultural University, Chinese Society of Agricultural Engineering and the Beijing Society for Information Technology in Agriculture. The purpose of this conference is to facilitate the communication and cooperation between institutions and researchers on theories, methods and implementation of computer science and information technology. By researching information technology development and the - sources integration in rural areas in China, an innovative and effective approach is expected to be explored to promote the technology application to the development of modern agriculture and contribute to the construction of new countryside. The rapid development of information technology has induced substantial changes and impact on the development of China’s rural areas. Western thoughts have exerted great impact on studies of Chinese information technology devel- ment and it helps more Chinese and western scholars to expand their studies in this academic and application area. Thus, this conference, with works by many prominent scholars, has covered computer science and technology and information development in China’s rural areas; and probed into all the important issues and the newest research topics, such as Agricultural Decision Support System and Expert System, GIS, GPS, RS and Precision Farming, CT applications in Rural Area, Agricultural System Simulation, Evolutionary Computing, etc.

This comprehensive guide to agricultural robots is the ideal companion for any student or professional engineer looking to understand and develop autonomous vehicles to use on the modern farm. With world hunger one of the modern era’s most pressing issues, autonomous agricultural vehicles are a key tool in tackling this problem. Smart farming can increase total factory productivity through designing autonomous vehicles based on specific needs, in addition to implementing smart systems into day-to-day operations. This book provides step-by-step guidance, from the theory behind autonomous vehicles, through to the design process and manufacture. Detailing all components of an autonomous agricultural vehicle, from sensors, controlling algorithms, communication and controlling units, the book covers topics such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. It also includes case studies, and a detailed guide to international policymaking in recent years. Suitable for students and professionals alike, this book will be a key companion to those interested in agricultural engineering, autonomous vehicles, robotics, and mechatronics, in mechanical, automotive, and electrical engineering.
