Preface
The last few years have witnessed great advances in applied artificial intelligence to solve real-life problems. To achieve this accomplishment, researchers have devoted significant efforts in various fields, from theoretical analysis to industrial practice. The International Conference on Industrial, Engineering and Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems (IEA/AIE), sponsored by the International Society of Applied Intelligence (ISAI), concentrates on artificial intelligence, as well as its applications to complex problem solving. The conference is held annually, and has become an important international event in the field of applied intelligence, where researchers and industrial communities communicat
