Collective intelligence has become one of major research issues studied by today’s and future computer science. computational collective intelligence is understood as this form of group intellectual activity that emerges from collaboration and compe- tion of many artificial individuals. Robotics, artificial intelligence, artificial cognition and group working try to create efficient models for collective intelligence in which it emerges from sets of actions carried out by more or less intelligent individuals. The major methodological, theoretical and practical aspects underlying computational collective intelligence are group decision making, collective action coordination, collective competition and knowledge description, transfer and integration. Obviously, the application of multiple computational technologies such as fuzzy systems, evo- tionary computation, neural systems, consensus theory, knowledge representation etc. is necessary to create new forms of computational collective intelligence and support existing ones. Three subfields of application of computational technologies to support forms of collective intelligence are of special attention to us. The first one is semantic web treated as an advanced tool that increases the collective intelligence in networking environments. The second one covers social networks modeling and analysis, where social networks are this area of in which various forms of computational collective intelligence emerges in a natural way. The third subfield relates us to agent and mul- agent systems understood as this computational and modeling paradigm which is especially tailored to capture the nature of computational collective intelligence in populations of autonomous individuals.

This special book is dedicated to the memory of Professor Zdzisław Pawlak, the father of rough set theory, in order to commemorate both the 10th anniversary of his passing and 35 years of rough set theory. The book consists of 20 chapters distributed into four sections, which focus in turn on a historical review of Professor Zdzisław Pawlak and rough set theory; a review of the theory of rough sets; the state of the art of rough set theory; and major developments in rough set based data mining approaches. Apart from Professor Pawlak’s contributions to rough set theory, other areas he was interested in are also included. Moreover, recent theoretical studies and advances in applications are also presented. The book will offer a useful guide for researchers in Knowledge Engineering and Data Mining by suggesting new approaches to solving the problems they encounter.

Teaching and learning paradigms have attracted increased attention in the last few years. Improved access to high speed Internet services and the massive increase in popularity of the Internet have paved the way for alternative but effective approaches in teaching and learning. This book on the evolution of teaching and learning paradigms in intelligent environment presents the latest ideas pertaining to educational pedagogy. The authors have recognised the role of constructivist thinking in teaching and learning plus the importance of providing a wide range of mental resources to encourage cognitive growth in students. Electronic learning or e-learning is rapidly transforming the teaching and learning environments of tertiary education facilities, further moulding the educational pedagogy to match the virtual digital modes of commu- cation favoured by teenagers during their secondary education. Teachers need to recognise that while technology should empower the learning process it is important not to neglect educational issues during the systematic analysis and design of the technologies for specific learning purposes. Recent advances in e-learning have emphasised the importance of personalised learning ontology or customising of learning material and activities to provide a personal environment for each learning activity. This means adapting the learning content, its sequencing and maybe some aspects of the learning process so that it can be adapted to different users with different capabilities. This push for personalised learning has also focused upon the need for refining data mining methods to classify e-learning problems e. g.

By incorporating biologically-inspired functions into ICT, various types of new-generation information and communication systems can be created. Just some example of areas already benefiting from such design inspiration are network architectures, information processing, molecular communication, and complex network modeling for solving real world-problems. This book provides the theoretical basis for understanding these developments and explains their practical applications. Highlighted inserts appears throughout to help readers to understand the very latest topics in these emerging research fields.
The book ends with a more philosophical discussion on how new ICT solutions can be found by looking at analogous systems in biology. This new way of thinking may help researchers and practitioners to apply innovative ideas in developing next-generation technologies.
