Additional information

Matías Alvarado is currently a Research Scientist at the Centre of Research and Advanced Studies (CINVESTAV-IPN, Mexico). He got a Ph.D. degree in computer science from the Technical University of Catalonia, with a major in artificial intelligence. He received the B.Sc. degree in mathematics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico. His interests in research and technological applications include knowledge management and decision making; autonomous agents and multiagent systems for supply chain disruption management; concurrency control, pattern recognition and computational logic. He is the author of about 50 scientific papers, a Journal Special Issues Guest Editor on topics of artificial intelligence and knowledge management for the oil industry; an academic, invited to the National University of Singapore, Technical University of Catalonia, University of Oxford, University of Utrecht, and Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla.

Leonid Sheremetov received the Ph.D. degree in computer science in 1990 from St. Petersburg Institute for Informatics and Automation of the Russian Academy of Sciences, where he has worked as a Research Fellow and a Senior Research Fellow from 1982. Now he is a Principal Investigator of the Research Program on Applied Mathematics and Computing of the Mexican Petroleum Institute, where he leads the Distributed Intelligent Systems Group, and a part-time professor of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of the Centre for Computing Research of the National Polytechnic Institute (CIC-IPN), Mexico. His current research interests include multiagent systems, semantic WEB, decision support systems, and enterprise information integration. His group developed CAPNET agent platform and has been involved in several projects for the energy industry ranging from petroleum exploration and production to knowledge management with special focus on industrial exploitation of agent technology. He is also a member of the Editorial Boards of several journals.

René Bañares-Alcántara has worked in the University of Oxford from October 2003 and is now a Reader in engineering science at the Department of Engineering Science and a Fellow in engineering at New College. He previously held a readership at the University of Edinburgh and lectureships in Spain and at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM). He obtained his undergraduate degree from UNAM and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). Starting with his work at CMU, his research interests have been in the area of process systems engineering, in particular chemical process design and synthesis. He has developed a strong relationship with computer science/artificial intelligence research groups in different universities and research institutes, with current research also linking to social and biological modeling. He has (co)authored more than 100 refereed publications and has been a Principal Investigator and a Researcher in several EPSRC and European Union projects.

Francisco Cantú-Ortiz obtained the Ph.D. degree in artificial intelligence from the University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom and the Bachelor's degree in computer systems engineering from the Tecnológico de Monterrey (ITESM), México. He is a Full Professor of artificial intelligence at Tecnológico de Monterey and is also the Dean of research and graduate Studies. He has been the Head of the Center for Artificial Intelligence and of the Informatics Research Center. Dr. Cantú-Ortiz has been the General Chair of about 15 international conferences in artificial intelligence and expert system and was a Local Chair of the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence in 2003. His research interests include knowledge based systems and inference, machine learning, and data mining using Bayesian and statistical techniques for business intelligence, technology management, and entrepreneurial science. More recently, his interests have extended to epistemology and philosophy of science. He was the President of the Mexican Society for Artificial Intelligence and is a member of the IEEE Computer Society and the ACM.
