Intelligence, Agents, Multimedia (IAM) Group http://www.iam.ecs.soton.ac.uk/

We are a broad-based, multi- and inter- disciplinary group that focuses on the design and application of computing systems for complex information and knowledge processing tasks. With around 120 researchers, we are international leaders in the three major themes that converge in the Group's tripartite title:

Intelligence

Examining the fundamental principles of intelligent and adaptive behaviour and developing methods and services for acquiring, modelling, reusing, retrieving, publishing and maintaining knowledge;

Agents

Devising new methods and models for inter-agent interactions such as cooperation, coordination, auctions and negotiation, new mechanisms for establishing trust and reputation in open systems, and pioneering work on agent-oriented software engineering;

Multimedia

Investigating the basic principles and applications of multi-modal communication, hypermedia and document management in large scale open systems such as digital libraries and the Semantic Web, and developing context aware, personalised information management systems.

These three research themes also combine synergistically in a number of grand challenges for computer science - including grid computing, peer-to-peer systems, sensor networks, the semantic web, and pervasive computing environments. All of these domains can be classified as large-scale, open, distributed systems in which entities (people and software), representing different stakeholders, act and interact in flexible ways to achieve their individual and collective goals.
