Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores the advancement and application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) specifically tailored to support position-oriented tasks. Unlike general-purpose AI tools, which are designed for broad functionality across multiple domains, this Special Issue highlights AI systems and technologies developed to address the unique requirements of specific roles and responsibilities. Our focus is on enhancing performance, efficiency, and decision-making in tasks that are inherently tied to particular job positions or functions.
The scope of this Special Issue spans a wide range of job-related activities, including, but not limited to, learning tasks, teaching responsibilities, clerical duties, conference organizing tasks, and official administrative operations. Contributions may address how AI can support educators in delivering personalized instruction, assist clerks in automating routine paperwork, or aid officials in managing complex workflows and policy implementation. By emphasizing context-aware position-specific AI tools, our aim is to deliver smarter, more responsive systems that align with the actual working conditions and task demands of individual roles.
This Special Issue welcomes both original research articles and comprehensive review papers that propose innovative models, architectures, algorithms, or frameworks focused on task execution based on job roles. Topics may include intelligent tutoring systems, AI-based workflow management, smart scheduling assistants, digital clerical agents, and other AI applications designed for defined occupational functions.
Our ultimate objective is to promote the development and adoption of AI technologies that go beyond generic automation by integrating deeper insights into the nuances of specific job contexts. By doing so, this Special Issue seeks to pave the way for more intelligent, role-aware systems that can adapt dynamically to various professional environments, enhance human capabilities, and potentially redefine how tasks are executed in the workplace.
