contributions in the area of information retrieval & Web intelligence: a novel
approach to solving index selection problem, integrated retrieval from Web of
documents and data, bipolarity in database querying, deriving data summarization
through ontologies, and granular computing for Web intelligence.
The second part of the book contains four contributions in knowledge discovery area.
Its third part contains three contributions in information integration & data
security area. The remaining two parts of the book contain six contributions
