**********************************************************************

 

Web Intelligence (WI) has been recognized as a new direction for

scientific research and development to explore the fundamental roles

as well as practical impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) 

(e.g., knowledge representation, planning, knowledge discovery and 

data mining, intelligent agents, and social network intelligence) and

advanced Information Technology (IT) (e.g., wireless networks,

ubiquitous devices, social networks, and data/knowledge grids) on 

the next generation of Web-empowered products, systems, services, and

activities. It is one of the most important as well as promising IT

research fields in the era of Web and agent intelligence.

 

The 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Web Intelligence

(WI'05) will be jointly held with the 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM International

Conference on Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT'05

http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/IAT05/, http://www.hds.utc.fr/IAT05).  

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/).
