Artificial intelligence (AI) represents one of the most dominating technologies this century. Indeed, it involves the contribution of many important sciences such as computer science, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, biology and many others. As AI is essentially based on computing science, it is considered as a computer-based technology in the first degree. AI technology has principally been used to develop intelligent systems for many areas. AI-based systems are considered as efficient, robust systems which can solve many complex problems.

One of the subfields of AI is knowledge engineering (KE), which introduces knowledge and reasoning to the development of intelligent information. KE involves many metrics such as knowledge-based systems and modelling. Applied to computer science technology, KE uses knowledge computing to develop intelligent decision-based systems in many application domains such as commerce, education and medicine/healthcare.

This special issue will present recent advances in the theory and successful application of artificial intelligence and knowledge computing approaches in fields such as medicine, biology, healthcare, education, agriculture, business, etc.

The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the International Conference on Advanced Wireless, Information, and Communication Technologies (AWICT 2015), but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this call.
