Many practical problems, e.g., many engineering design problems, can be solved by known (routine) techniques. For many of these problems, these techniques have been incorporated into software packages so the solutions to these problems can be (largely) automated. However, there are still many other problems for which no routine techniques are known. For example, usually it is rather routine to design a new chip based on the known technologies, but when technologies change, the problems becomes nontrivial. To solve such hard-to-solve problems, we must use new ideas; we must use our intelligence. Any technology that helps us in solving such problems is called intelligent technology.
