#######################################################################

Web Intelligence (WI) aims to achieve a multi-disciplinary balance
between research advances in theories and methods usually associated
with collective intelligence, data science, human-centric computing,
knowledge management, and network science. It is committed to
addressing research that both deepen the understanding of
computational, logical, cognitive, physical, and social foundations of
the future Web, and enable the development and application of
technologies based on Web intelligence. WI’16 provides a premier
forum and features high-quality, original research papers and
real-world applications in all theoretical and technology areas that
make up the field of WI.

WI'16 will be co-located with the 2016 International Conference on
Brain Informatics & Health (BIH'16). Under our theme Connecting
Network and Brain with Big Data, WI'16 and BIH'16 will provide a broad
forum that academia, professionals and industry people can use to
exchange their ideas, findings and strategies in utilizing the power
of human brains and man-made networks to create a better world. The
attendees only need to register for one of the 2 conferences, but they
can attend all sessions and social events of the 2 conferences.

WI'16 welcomes both research and application papers submissions. All
submitted papers will be reviewed on the basis of technical quality,
relevance, significance and clarity. Accepted full papers will be
included in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press.

Tutorial, Workshop and Special-Session proposals and
Industry/Demo-Track papers are also welcome.
