Abstract
This paper presents the specification of an architecture for self-organizing scheduling systems. The proposed architecture uses learning by observing the experts and interpretation of scheduling experience. The design of intelligent systems that learn with experts is a very hard and challenging domain because current systems are becoming more and more complex and subject to rapid changes. In this work, different areas as Intelligent and Adaptive Human-Machine Interfaces, Metacognition and Learning from Observation, Self-managed Systems, amongst others, are joint together resulting in a global fully integrated architecture for self-organizing scheduling systems.

Abstract
In this paper a Cooperation Mechanism for Distributed Scheduling based on Bees based Computing is proposed. Where multiple self-interested agents can reach agreement over the exchange of operations on cooperative resources. Agents must collaborate to improve their local solutions and the global schedule. The proposed cooperation mechanism is able to analyze the scheduling plan generated by the Resource Agents and refine it by idle times reducing taking advantage from cooperative and the self-organized behavior of Artificial Bee Colony technique. The computational study allows concluding about statistical evidence that the cooperation mechanism influences significantly the overall system performance.

Abstract
This paper aims to provide a solution to a problem shared by online marketing platforms. Many of these platforms are exploited by spammers to ease their job of distributing spam. This can lead to platforms domains being black-listed by ISP’s, which translates to lower deliverability rates and consequently lower profits. Normally, platforms try to counter the problem by using rule-based systems, which require high-maintenance and are not easily editable. Additionally, since analysis occurs when a contact database is imported, the regular approach of judging messages’ contents directly is not an effective solution, as those do not yet exist. The proposed solution, a machine-learning based system for the classification of contact database’s importations, tries to surpass these aforementioned systems by making use of the capabilities introduced by machine-learning technologies, namely, reliability in regards to classification and ease of maintenance. Preliminary results show the legitimacy of this approach, since various algorithms can be successfully applied to it. The most proficient of the ones applied being Ada-boost and Random-forest. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Abstract
User modeling and user adaptive interaction has become a central research issue to understand users as they interact with technology. The importance of the development of well adapted interfaces to several kinds of users and the differences that characterize them is the basis of the successful interaction. User Personas is a technique that allows the discovery and definition of the archetype users of a system. With that knowledge, the system should shape itself, inferring the user expertise to provide its users with the best possible experience. In this paper, an architecture that combines User Personas and a dynamic, evolving system is proposed, along with an evaluation by its target users. The proposed system is able to infer the user and its matching Persona, and keeps shaping itself in parallel with the user's discovery of the system.

Abstract
In this paper an Artificial Bee Colony Approach for Scheduling Optimization is presented. The adequacy of the proposed approach is validated on the minimization of the total weighted tardiness for a set of jobs to be processed on a single machine and on a set of instances for Job-Shop scheduling problem. The obtained computational results allowed concluding about their efficiency and effectiveness. The ABC performance and respective statistical significance was evaluated.

Abstract
This paper addresses the developing of Learning-Assisted Intelligent Scheduling Systems that uses active learning by accumulation and interpretation of scheduling experience or even by observation of expert's decisions. The design of intelligent systems (IS) that learn with experts is a very hard and challenging domain because current systems are becoming more and more complex and subject to rapid changes. The model for the proposed system will be presented.
