 Emergent Web Intelligence

Volume(s) Editors:  Richard Chbeir, Youakim Badr, Ajith Abraham, Aboul-Ella Hassanien

To be published by Springer Verlag


  Book Objectives

    The current Internet changes our daily life by redefining the meanings and processes of business, commerce, marketing, finance, publishing, education, research, etc. and by revolutionizing the way we produce, store, process, retrieve and use information. Although individual Web-based information systems are regularly being deployed, new efficient techniques and approaches for developing and for benefiting from collective Web intelligence are required more than ever to help users avoid irrelevant web search results (pages, links, etc.), fraud e-business transactions, non-personalized web information, even wrong web decisions, etc. 

The novel intelligent web theory exploits advanced information technology and IA to explore the next generation of web-empowered systems, services, and environments, and to design and provide hybrid web systems that serve wired and wireless users more efficiently.

       In this book, we aim at gathering the latest advances of various topics in web intelligence and reporting how organizations can gain competitive advantages by applying the different emergent techniques in the real-world scenarios. Papers and studies which couple the intelligence techniques and theories with specific web technology problems are cordially invited. Survey articles that emphasize the research and application of web intelligence in a particular domain are greatly welcome.

The primary target audience for the book includes researchers, scholars, postgraduate students and developers who are interested in Web intelligence research and related issues. The book will provide reviews of the cutting–edge technologies and insights for Web-based systems. In particular, the book will be valuable companion and comprehensive reference for both postgraduate and senior undergraduate students who are taking a course in Web intelligence. The book will be organized in self-contained chapters to provide greatest reading flexibility.
