Researchers have started addressing multidisciplinary real and complex research solutions to complex problems, like on-line health care prediction systems, communication through speech, automatic programming, and dynamic change prediction systems in stock markets, privacy, and risk analysis. The emphasis of the reported research work is on new, original, and innovative research and technological developments rather than reports on the application of existing technologies to different sets of data.

The integration of multiple intelligent approaches in solving complex real life problems is of particular importance. The journal addresses issues involving research on intelligent manufacturing, privacy preserving systems, risk analysis, knowledge based management, modern techniques to improve health-care systems, methods to assist government, and solving industrial problems which are too complex to be solved through conventional approaches. The areas of research include natural language and speech interfaces, intelligent robotics, learning methodologies, intelligent decision support systems, evolutionary computing, genetic programming, heuristic methods, intelligent searching, agents, optimization, neural networks, mining data and patterns, cognitive interaction, knowledge-based reasoning, modeling, planning and scheduling, classification and clustering, computer vision, fuzzy logic and control, games, smart graphics, fault diagnosis, pattern recognition, bio-informatics, uncertain information processes, big data & streaming data, feature selection, advances in social network systems, recommender systems, use of distributed and parallel processing and E-service personalization, as well as other hot topics.

The focus of the journal is towards research advances on new and innovative intelligent systems’ methodologies and their applications in solving real life complex problems. Contrary to proceedings, the length of such papers is not limited, and other papers related to the same topic, not presented at the conference, can be added to the issue.The international journal of Applied Intelligence provides a medium for publishing scientific research and technological achievements accomplished by the international community. All papers submitted to such a collection are handled and refereed in the same way as regular research papers. However, some issues of the journal may be Topical Issues which are concerned with a specific topic selected by the editors and, in some cases, may contain papers presented at a monothematic conference. Proceedings of conferences are not published in Solar Physics. Articles on stellar research as long as their results have a direct impact upon the understanding of the Sun, its structure and activity, or when solar observations are used when interpreting stellar data.

That is, results of solar−terrestrial physics are included if they are clearly related to the physics of the Sun or if they use terrestrial phenomena as indicators of solar activity. Articles on solar-terrestrial physics and on stellar research are also published when their results have a direct bearing on our understanding of the Sun. The journal treats all aspects of solar physics, ranging from the internal structure of the Sun and its evolution to the outer corona and solar wind in interplanetary space. Solar Physics was founded in 1967 and is the principal journal for the publication of the results of fundamental research on the Sun.
