專家系統：知識工程雜志發表了涉及知識工程各個方面的論文，包括知識獲取和表示中的個別方法和技術，以及它們在系統（包括專家系統）構建中的應用。詳細的科學評估是任何論文的重要組成部分。除了軟件和需求工程、人機交互和人工智能等傳統應用領域，我們還致力于這些技術的新的和不斷增長的市場，如商業、經濟、市場研究和醫療保健。這一新的關注焦點的轉變將以一系列涉及熱點和緊急主題的特殊問題為標志。

Expert Systems: The Journal of Knowledge Engineering publishes papers dealing with all aspects of knowledge engineering, including individual methods and techniques in knowledge acquisition and representation, and their application in the construction of systems – including expert systems – based thereon. Detailed scientific evaluation is an essential part of any paper.As well as traditional application areas, such as Software and Requirements Engineering, Human-Computer Interaction, and Artificial Intelligence, we are aiming at the new and growing markets for these technologies, such as Business, Economy, Market Research, and Medical and Health Care. The shift towards this new focus will be marked by a series of special issues covering hot and emergent topics.
