Software Engineering and Knowledge Discovery are two developing areas in the Information technology. These two fields are interrelated and have important roles in business, education, health, government, and society. Even though, these fields are considered quite mature, research in these areas are yet evolving with the objective of providing better performance of offered services.
Software Engineering is concerned with developing and maintaining software systems that behave reliably and efficiently, and satisfy all the requirements that customers have defined for them. It is important because of the impact of large, expensive software systems and the role of software in safety-critical applications. It integrates significant mathematics, computer science and practices whose origins are in engineering.
Knowledge Discovery is an interdisciplinary area that focuses on methodologies for identifying novel, valid, useful and meaningful patterns from data. Knowledge Discovery also includes the evaluation of patterns and identification of which add to knowledge.
