Ambient intelligence emphasizes people and user experience and ensuring ultimately that the technology disappears into our surroundings until only the user interface remains visible to users. The International
Journal of Ambient Computing and Intelligence (IJACI) will specifically focus on the convergence of several computing areas. The first is ubiquitous computing which focuses on self-testing and self repairing software, privacy ensuring technology and the development of various ad hoc networking capabilities that exploit numerous low-cost computing devices. The second key area is intelligent systems research, which provides learning algorithms and pattern matchers, speech recognition and language translators, and gesture classification and situation assessment. Another area is context awareness which attempts to track and position objects of all types and represent objects’ interactions with their environments. Finally, an appreciation of human-centric computer interfaces, intelligent agents, multimodal interaction and the social interactions of objects in environments is essential. TopJournal Contents

TopMissionThe primary objective of the International Journal of Ambient Computing and Intelligence (IJACI) is to provide comprehensive coverage and understanding of cutting-edge research in fields as diverse as distributed computing, human computer interaction, ubiquitous computing, embedded systems, and other interdisciplinary areas which all contribute to ambient intelligence (AmI). The secondary objective of this journal is to broaden the overall body of knowledge regarding how the ambient intelligence paradigm builds upon ubiquitous computing and human-centric computer interaction design and is characterized by systems and technologies that are embedded, context-aware, personalized, adaptive, and anticipatory in the sense that they can anticipate desires without conscious mediation. TopReviews and Testimonials"This journal will play a crucial role in the refreshing research arena that is ambient intelligence. This journal will no doubt prove to be the primary outlet for researchers in the field to publicize their work. It is also nice to see it will cover the analysis, design, implementation, and evaluation of ambient computing systems and environments."
