This book describes how to use computational intelligence and artificial intelligence tools to improve the decision-making process in new product development. These approaches, including artificial neural networks and constraint satisfaction solutions, enable a more precise prediction of product development performance compared to widely used multiple regression models. They support decision-makers by providing more reliable information regarding, for example, project portfolio selection and project scheduling.&nbsp;<div><br></div><div>The book is appropriate for computer scientists, management scientists, students and practitioners engaged with product innovation and computational intelligence applications.</div>
