The Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments (JAISE) serves as a forum to discuss the latest developments on Ambient Intelligence (AmI) and Smart Environments (SmE). Given the multi-disciplinary nature of the areas involved, the journal aims to promote participation from several different communities covering topics ranging from enabling technologies such as multi-modal sensing and vision processing, to algorithmic aspects in interpretive and reasoning domains, to application-oriented efforts in human-centered services, as well as contributions from the fields of robotics, networking, HCI, mobile, collaborative and pervasive computing. This diversity stems from the fact that smart environments can be defined with a variety of different characteristics based on the applications they serve, their interaction models with humans, the practical system design aspects, as well as the multi-faceted conceptual and algorithmic considerations that would enable them to operate seamlessly and unobtrusively. The Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments will focus on both the technical and application aspects of these.

環境智能與智能環境雜志（JAISE）是討論環境智能（AmI）和智能環境（SmE）最新發展的論壇。鑒于所涉及領域的多學科性質，該期刊旨在促進幾個不同社區的參與，涵蓋從多模式傳感和視覺處理等支持技術到解釋和推理領域的算法方面，再到面向應用的主題。以人為本的服務，以及機器人，網絡，人機交互，移動，協作和普適計算領域的貢獻。這種多樣性源于這樣一個事實：智能環境可以根據它們所服務的應用，它們與人類的交互模型，實際的系統設計方面以及多方面的概念和算法考慮來定義各種不同的特征。使他們能夠無縫且不引人注目地運作。環境智能和智能環境雜志將重點關注這些技術和應用方面。
