Software Agent; Expert-software agents Ex.

The engineer in artificial intelligence performs programming actions based on artificial intelligence. This intelligence uses intelligent agents, computational system placed in an environment and able to carry out independent actions in this environment to reach its objectives. Numerous dynamic elements interact and learn mutually or from the environment (databases, information systems, etc.) thus allowing them to simulate the behaviour of persons or machines and to take decisions in accordance with the mission they have been programmed for.

Artificial Intelligence is a very broad discipline which includes the following fields: robotics, natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, neural networks, computer vision, intelligent agent-based modeling, big data, recommendation systems, predictive analytics, etc.

• Develop algorithms for artificial intelligence by applying fuzzy logic systems.
• Develop customization applications based on neural networks and datamining.
• Integrate with Internet platforms and CRM (Customer Relationship Management).
• Create multi-agent system models for different online environments and develop the use of negotiation techniques in multi-agent systems.
• Creatively apply knowledge in artificial intelligence to develop prototypes to provide real solutions to various demands.

New technologies

People who show an interest in this field are motivated by the development and advanced use of new technologies in any of their applications (software, hardware, telecommunications) from an innovative perspective and in accordance with the continuous updates of technologies, programmes and equipment that appear on the market. The design, installation, management and maintenance of computer systems and new technologies are activities specific to this field.

Technician

People who show an interest in the technical field find fulfilment in carrying out activities related to the design and manufacture of objects, machines, vehicles and/or infrastructures. These activities require the application of scientific and technical knowledge (laws of physics, calculations and mathematical formulas, properties of the materials, etc). Creativity is also necessary when coming up with optimal solutions for the functional requirements of the products to be designed. Therefore, the pragmatic application of scientific knowledge in order to develop solutions for the benefit of human beings is the main function of occupations in the technical field.
