《國際軟件工程與知識工程雜志》旨在為研究人員、實(shí)踐者和開發(fā)人員提供一個(gè)論壇，以交流思想和成果，促進(jìn)軟件工程與知識工程的發(fā)展。將出版三種類型的論文：報(bào)告原始研究結(jié)果的研究論文技術(shù)趨勢調(diào)查回顧了軟件工程和知識工程的一個(gè)研究領(lǐng)域軟件工程和知識工程領(lǐng)域的測量文章此外，工具評論（不超過三頁手稿）和書評（不超過兩頁手稿）也受歡迎。本雜志的中心主題是軟件工程和知識工程之間的相互作用：如何將知識工程方法應(yīng)用于軟件工程，反之亦然。該雜志發(fā)表了軟件工程方法和實(shí)踐、面向?qū)ο笙到y(tǒng)、快速原型、軟件重用、潔凈室軟件工程、逐步改進(jìn)/增強(qiáng)、規(guī)范的正式方法、軟件開發(fā)中的模糊性、案例對軟件開發(fā)生命周期的影響、知識引擎等領(lǐng)域的論文。ERING方法與實(shí)踐、邏輯編程、專家系統(tǒng)、知識系統(tǒng)、分布式知識系統(tǒng)、演繹數(shù)據(jù)庫系統(tǒng)、知識表示、語言翻譯與處理中的知識系統(tǒng)、軟件與知識軟件維護(hù)、軟件設(shè)計(jì)中的逆向工程，以及感興趣的各個(gè)領(lǐng)域的應(yīng)用。

The International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering is intended to serve as a forum for researchers, practitioners, and developers to exchange ideas and results for the advancement of software engineering and knowledge engineering. Three types of papers will be published:Research papers reporting original research resultsTechnology trend surveys reviewing an area of research in software engineering and knowledge engineeringSurvey articles surveying a broad area in software engineering and knowledge engineeringIn addition, tool reviews (no more than three manuscript pages) and book reviews (no more than two manuscript pages) are also welcome.A central theme of this journal is the interplay between software engineering and knowledge engineering: how knowledge engineering methods can be applied to software engineering, and vice versa. The journal publishes papers in the areas of software engineering methods and practices, object-oriented systems, rapid prototyping, software reuse, cleanroom software engineering, stepwise refinement/enhancement, formal methods of specification, ambiguity in software development, impact of CASE on software development life cycle, knowledge engineering methods and practices, logic programming, expert systems, knowledge-based systems, distributed knowledge-based systems, deductive database systems, knowledge representations, knowledge-based systems in language translation & processing, software and knowledge-ware maintenance, reverse engineering in software design, and applications in various domains of interest.
