KESE stands for Knowledge Engineering and Software Engineering.

Intelligent systems have been successfully developed in various domains based on techniques and tools from the fields of knowledge engineering and software engineering. Thus, declarative software engineering techniques have been established in many areas, such as knowledge systems, logic programming, constraint programming, and lately in the context of the Semantic Web and business rules.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

AI in software/knowledge engineering:

• Knowledge and experience management
• Declarative, logic-based approaches
• Constraint programming
• Agent-oriented software engineering
• Issues of maintenance
• Bussiness Rules

Knowledge/software engineering in AI:

• Engineering the Semantic Web
• Database and knowledge base management in AI systems
• Tools for intelligent systems
• Evaluation of (intelligent) systems
• Process models

The fourth workshop on Knowledge Engineering and Software Engineering (KESE 2008) wants to bring together researchers and practitioners from both fields of software engineering and artificial intelligence. The intention is to give ample space for exchanging latest research results as well as knowledge about practical experience. The previous KESE Workshops were held at the KI-2007, KI-2006 and KI-2005.

See here, for the full KESE2008 Call For Papers.

The KESE2008 workshop is organized together with the German AI Conference, the KI2008.

See KI2008 page for preliminary deadlines.

This year we are having the fourth workshop. Below, you can find links to the previous events.
