Dear Henk,

If you mean classical AI (e.g., Russell & Norvig), I don't know of any course
or course notes.  But there is some information available:

1. There are detailed course notes on using Mozart for natural language
processing.  See:

  http://www.ps.uni-sb.de/~niehren/oz-natural-language-script.html

2. There are detailed tutorials on constraint programming, with emphasis
on constraint-based optimization.  The 'search' part of this can be
read in the light of AI search algorithms.

3. There is some information on using Mozart for logic programming.
There is a document in preparation; Seif Haridi (seif at sics.se) can
give you more information.  There will be a tutorial at ICLP99 on
this topic; more information will be available by then.

Peter
