Introduction

In the last decade, data mining and multiagent systems have emerged as two
of the most vigorous areas in information technology. The nature and
complementarity of both areas foreshows an emerging trend—the increasing
interaction and integration between multiagents and data mining. A
symbiotic relationship could significantly strengthen each side’s progress
and trigger new R&D challenges and prospects toward the advancement of
next-generation intelligent technologies and systems and many other
potential aspects.

Book Aims

This edited book aspires to report high quality work on the interaction
and integration between data mining and multiagents toward mutual
enhancement and superintelligent techniques and synergism. It encourages
both theoretical and workable applications synergizing both areas to share
R&D results and discuss existing and emerging theoretical and applied
problems in the interaction and evolution of agents and data mining.

Scopes of Interest (not limited to):

·           Challenges and prospects of agents and data mining integration

·           Methodologies for agents and data mining interaction and
integration

·           Multiagent-based KDD infrastructure

·           Multiagent-enriched data mining process and management

·           Multiagent-enriched data mining methods

·           Multiagent-enriched distributed and multiple source data mining

·           Automated and agent-human-cooperated data mining learning

·           Data-mining-driven agent coordination, adaptation and evolution

·           Data-mining-driven multiagent communication, planning and
dispatching

·           Data-mining-driven user modelling and servicing

·           Data-mining-driven multiagent learning

·           Involving user preferences and human intelligence through
agent-mining interaction

·           Involving domain knowledge and intelligence through
agent-mining interaction

·           Involving network intelligence in agent-mining interaction

·           Involving organizational and social intelligence in
agent-mining interaction

·           Meta-synthesis of computing intelligence in agent-mining
integration

·           Performance framework for agent-mining symbiont

·           Interestingness metrics for agent miners

·           Performance metrics for data-mining-driven agent intelligence
and behavior

·           Typical engineering and industry applications

·           Trends of agents and data mining interaction and integration

Submissions

Two-stage submission: First, interested researchers and practitioners are
invited to submit a chapter proposal clearly stating your focused problems
and contributions related to one of the above topics due on November 1,
2008; Second, authors of accepted proposals will be notified by November
10, 2008 about the status of their proposals and sent chapter
organizational guidelines. Full chapters are due by December 15, 2008. All
