    Call for Book Proposals
    ***********************

    Aims and Scope
    ==============

    The Springer book series on Knowledge Systems aims to report and
    encourage new developments in all topic areas related to knowledge
    systems, such as knowledge engineering, data mining, ontologies,
    agents, Web-based knowledge representation, knowledge management, and
    knowledge-based software engineering. It publishes books that may
    comprise (1) collected works on advanced topics in Knowledge Systems
    with influential papers selected from various journals and
    conferences, and (2) research and tutorial monographs on emerging
    topics. Each book proposal in the book series will be reviewed by the
    Series Editorial Board with possible additional reviewers.

    The book series focuses on knowledge systems, including their
    theoretical foundations, infrastructure, enabling technologies and
    emerging applications.

    If you are interested in writing or editing a book to be published
    within the Springer Knowledge Systems series, please complete the
    Springer book proposal form (available at
    http://www.cs.uvm.edu/~xwu/kaim/AQ.doc or by e-mail to
    xwu@emba.uvm.edu) and submit it to the Series Editor by e-mail at
    xwu@emba.uvm.edu with the following information.

     - A 500-word summary of the nature and scope of the book
     - A draft table of chapter/section headings
     - A sample chapter or two if available
     - Names and e-mail addresses of 3 potential reviewers for the book
       topic. These people should not be associated with the proposal and
       should be qualified to provide a technical assessment of the
       subject.
     - Proposer(s)' current CV's with listings of representative

    The book series emphasizes timely processing of book proposals and
    minimal delay in publication time. We review book proposals with
    Springer, and Springer will advise proposers of their proposal
    status. We strongly encourage electronic submissions in the form of
    PDF/postscript/Word files by e-mail. Springer London will contact the
    proposers directly to discuss the outcomes from the proposal review.

    General enquiries relating to the book series can be directed to any
    member of the Series Editorial Board. Enquiries regarding the status
    of specific proposals should be directed to the Series Editor only.
