To design and develop capable, dependable, and affordable intelligent systems, their performance must be measurable. Scienti?c methodologies for standardization and benchmarking are crucial for quantitatively evaluating the performance of eme- ing robotic and intelligent systems’ technologies. There is currently no accepted standard for quantitatively measuring the performance of these systems against user-de?ned requirements; and furthermore, there is no consensus on what obj- tive evaluation procedures need to be followed to understand the performance of these systems. The lack of reproducible and repeatable test methods has precluded researchers working towards a common goal from exchanging and communic- ing results, inter-comparing system performance, and leveraging previous work that could otherwise avoid duplication and expedite technology transfer. Currently, this lack of cohesion in the community hinders progress in many domains, such as m- ufacturing, service, healthcare, and security. By providing the research community with access to standardized tools, reference data sets, and open source libraries of solutions, researchers and consumers will be able to evaluate the cost and be- ?ts associated with intelligent systems and associated technologies. In this vein, the edited book volume addresses performance evaluation and metrics for intel- gent systems, in general, while emphasizing the need and solutions for standardized methods. To the knowledge of the editors, there is not a single book on the market that is solely dedicated to the subject of performance evaluation and benchmarking of intelligent systems.

The Indian ideal of womanhood is built on the great lives of women in India's spiritual past, including the epics and puranas, especially the Ramayana and Mahabharata.
The book has two sections. The first one deals with a general survey of the ideals and position of the women of India. Included is a chapter on the evoluition of mother worship in India.
Tthe second part looks at the lives of the women that Indian society looks at in awe. Note that since the book was printed in 1953, some of the concepts may appear dated, but the overview is still a pioneering look at the great women of India's past.
 Beautifully illustrated with black &amp; white photographs and color paintings. A wonderful addition to any library.
