One of the grand challenges in our digital world are the large, complex and often weakly structured data sets, and massive amounts of unstructured information.
Web engineering is a new discipline that addresses the pressing need for syst- atic and tool-supported approaches for the development, maintenance and te- ing of Web applications.
The ongoing migration of computing and information access from the desktop and te- phone to mobile computing devices such as PDAs, tablet PCs, and next-generation (3G) phones poses critical challenges for research on information access.
These Transactions publish research in computer-based methods of computational collective intelligence (CCI) and their applications in a wide range of fields such as the Semantic Web, social networks and multi-agent systems.
The portable device and mobile phone market has witnessed rapid growth in the last few years with the emergence of several revolutionary products such as mobile TV, converging iPhone and digital cameras that combine music, phone and video functionalities into one device.
* Semantic caching * Data warehousing and semantic data mining * Spatial, temporal, multimedia and multimodal semantics * Semantics in data visualization * Semantic services for mobile users * Supporting tools * Applications of semantic-driven approaches These topics are to be understood as specifically related to semantic issues.
