Scope
Semantic Computing (SC) is defined as "Computing with (machine processable) Descriptions of Content and Intentions." It brings together those disciplines concerned with connecting the (often vaguely formulated) intentions of humans with computational content that includes, but is not limited to, structured and semi-structured data, multimedia data, text, programs, services and, even, network behavior.
International Journal of Semantic Computing (IJSC) addresses the computing technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, natural language, software engineering, data and knowledge engineering, computer systems, signal processing, etc.), and their interactions, that may be used to extract or process computational content and descriptions. While some areas of Semantic Computing have appeared as isolated pieces in journals dedicated to individual disciplines, IJSC is a journal that glues these pieces together into an integrated theme with synergetic interactions. It addresses not only the analysis and transformation of signals (e.g., pixels, words) into useful information, but also how such information can be synthesized and accessed. IJSC publishes regular papers, review papers, case studies, tutorials, communications, book reviews, conference reports, industry trends, and product reviews.
