The 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Intelligent Agent

Technology (IAT'05) will be jointly held with the 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM

International Conference on Web Intelligence (WI'05

http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/WI05/, http://www.hds.utc.fr/WI05/).  

The IEEE/WIC/ACM 2005 joint conferences are sponsored and organized by

IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Computational

Intelligence (TCCI) (http://www.cs.uvm.edu/~xwu/tcci/index.shtml), 

Web Intelligence Consortium (WIC) (http://wi-consortium.org), and

ACM-SIGART (http://www.acm.org/sigart/).  The upcoming meeting in this

conference series follows the great success of IAT-99 held in Hong

Kong, IAT-01 held in Maebashi City, Japan, IAT-03 held in Halifax,

Canada, and IAT-04 in Beijing, China.
