Granular Computing: Past, Present and Future

Granular computing is gradually changing from a label to a new field of study. The driving forces, the major schools of thought, and the future research directions on granular computing are examined. A triarchic theory of granular computing is outlined. Granular computing is viewed as an interdisciplinary study of human-inspired computing, characterized by structured thinking, structured problem solving, and structured information processing.
