The increasing complexity of our world demands new perspectives on
the role of technology in decision making. Human decision making
has its li- tations in terms of information-processing capacity. We
need new technology to cope with the increasingly complex and
information-rich nature of our modern society. This is particularly
true for critical environments such as crisis management and tra?c
management, where humans need to engage in close collaborations
with arti?cial systems to observe and understand the situation and
respond in a sensible way. We believe that close collaborations
between humans and arti?cial systems will become essential and that
the importance of research into Interactive Collaborative
Information Systems (ICIS) is self-evident. Developments in
information and communication technology have ra- cally changed our
working environments. The vast amount of information available
nowadays and the wirelessly networked nature of our modern so- ety
open up new opportunities to handle di?cult decision-making
situations such as computer-supported situation assessment and
distributed decision making. To make good use of these new
possibilities, we need to update our traditional views on the role
and capabilities of information systems. The aim of the Interactive
Collaborative Information Systems project is to develop techniques
that support humans in complex information en- ronments and that
facilitate distributed decision-making capabilities. ICIS
emphasizes the importance of building actor-agent communities:
close c- laborations between human and arti?cial actors that
highlight their comp- mentary capabilities, and in which task
distribution is ?exible and adaptive.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 39th
International Conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice
of Computer Science, SOFSEM 2013, held in Spindleruv Mlyn, Czech
Republic, in January 2013. The 37 revised full papers presented in
this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 98
submissions. The book also contains 10 invited talks, 5 of which
are in full-paper length. The contributions are organized in
topical sections named: foundations of computer science; software
and Web engineering; data, information, and knowledge engineering;
and social computing and human factors.
