This chapter introduces this edited book. It aims to set the context in which we discuss the relevance of AI (artificial intelligence) to what we consider to be modern strands of computing, including, amongst other areas, pervasive or ubiquitous computing, autonomic computing, bioinformatics, DNA computing, neuroinformatics, brain-computer interfaces, quantum computing, and quantum cryptography.
