As we stand at the precipice of the twenty first century the
ability to capture and transmit copious amounts of information is
clearly a defining feature of the human race. In order to increase
the value of this vast supply of information we must develop means
for effectively processing it. Newly emerging disciplines such as
Information Engineering and Soft Computing are being developed in
order to provide the tools required. Conferences such as the
International Conference on Information Processing and
ManagementofUncertainty in Knowledge-based Systems (IPMU) are being
held to provide forums in which researchers can discuss the latest
developments. The recent IPMU conference held at La Sorbonne in
Paris brought together some of the world's leading experts in
uncertainty and information fusion. In this volume we have included
a selection ofpapers from this conference. What should be clear
from looking at this volume is the number of different ways that
are available for representing uncertain information. This variety
in representational frameworks is a manifestation of the different
types of uncertainty that appear in the information available to
the users. Perhaps, the representation with the longest history is
probability theory. This representation is best at addressing the
uncertainty associated with the occurrence of different values for
similar variables. This uncertainty is often described as
randomness. Rough sets can be seen as a type of uncertainty that
can deal effectively with lack of specificity, it is a powerful
tool for manipulating granular information.
