Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering

However it has long been recognized by many people that knowledge engineering plays an increasingly important role in software design. Indeed it is because of this conviction that the international conference series on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (SEKE) was founded in 1988, followed by the publication of the International Journal of Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (IJSEKE) three years later. For both the SEKE conference series and the IJSEKE journal, the basic viewpoint is that the interdisciplinary area of software engineering and knowledge engineering is concerned with the interplay between software engineering and knowledge engineering - how software engineering can be applied to knowledge engineering, and how knowledge engineering can be applied to software engineering.
