> Web has evolved as an omnipresent system which highly impacts science,
> education, industry and everyday life. Web is now a vast data production
> and consumption platform at which threads of data evolve from multiple
> devices, by different human interactions, over worldwide locations under
> divergent distributed settings. Such a dynamic complex system demands
> adaptive intelligent solutions, which will advance knowledge, human
> interactions and innovation. Web intelligence is now a cutting edge area
> which must address all open issues towards deepening the understanding of
> all Web’s entities, phenomena, and developments.
>
> Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology (WI-IAT) aims to achieve
> a multi-disciplinary balance between research advances in theories and
> methods usually associated with collective intelligence, data science,
> human-centric computing, knowledge management, network science, autonomous
> agents and multi-agent systems. It is committed to addressing research that
> both deepen the understanding of computational, logical, cognitive,
> physical, and social foundations of the future Web, and enable the
> development and application of intelligent technologies. WI-IAT ’20
> provides a premier forum and features high-quality, original research
> papers and real-world applications in all theoretical and technology areas
> that make up the field of Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent
> Technology. WI-IAT ’20 welcomes research, application as well as
> Industry/Demo-Track paper submissions. Tutorial, Workshop and
> Special-Session proposals and papers are also welcome. WI-IAT ’20 is
> officially
> sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Intelligent
> Informatics (TCII), Web Intelligence Consortium (WIC), ACM-SIGAI, Swinburne
> University of Technology, Deakin University, and technically sponsored by
> University of Melbourne.
>
> WI-IAT ’20 will provide a broad forum that academia, professionals and
> industry people can exchange their ideas, findings and strategies in
> utilizing the power of human brains and man-made networks to create a
> better world. More specifically, the fields of how intelligence is
> impacting the Web of People, the Web of Data, the Web of Things, the Web of
> Trust, the Web of Agents, and emerging Web in health and smart living in
> the 5G Era.
>
> The main theme for the WI-IAT '20 is "Web Intelligence = AI in the
> Connected World". It will also feature an industrial session, to embrace
> innovative concepts, architecture, evaluation and novel applications from
> industry.
