High-quality workshops will be recommended to pursue special issues in WI/IAT related journals.) As the Web continues to grow and evolve, many new problems and challenges are being introduced. The WI-IAT workshops aim to provide researchers who share similar research interests to meet and address new research challenges and initiatives that concern Web Intelligence (WI) and Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT). The Workshops provide a venue and forum for contributions in specialized sub-areas of Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology, and allowing authors to present new and emerging trends in methods and technologies to dedicated audiences. Following the great success of WI-IAT'01 held in Maebashi City, Japan, WI-IAT'03 held in Halifax, Canada, WI-IAT'04 held in Beijing, China, WI-IAT'05 in Compiegne, France, WI-IAT'06 held in Hong Kong, WI-IAT'07 held in Silicon Valley USA, WI-IAT'08 held in Sydney, Australia, and WI-IAT'09 held in Milano, Italy. WI-IAT'10 will provide a leading international forum for researchers and practitioners to present the state-of-the-art WI-IAT technologies; examine performance characteristics of various approaches in WI and IAT; and cross-fertilize ideas on the development of WI and IAT. By idea-sharing and discussions on the underlying foundations and the enabling technologies of WI and IAT, 2010 WI-IAT Workshops will capture current important developments of new models, new methodologies and new tools for building a variety of embodiments of WI or IAT systems. As an important part of the conference, the workshop program will focus on new research challenges and initiatives. All papers accepted for workshops will be included in the Workshop Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press that are indexed by EI, and will be available at the workshops.
