The disciplines of knowledge engineering and knowledge management are closely tied. Knowledge engineering deals with the development of information systems in which knowledge and reasoning play pivotal roles. Knowledge management, a newly developed field at the intersection of computer science and management, deals with knowledge as a key resource in modern organizations. Managing knowledge within an organization is inconceivable without the use of advanced information systems; the design and implementation of such systems pose great organization as well as technical challenges.

This two-volume set of LNAI 12274 and LNAI 12275 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Knowledge Science, Engineering and Management, KSEM 2020, held in Hangzhou, China, in August 2020.* The 58 revised full papers and 27 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 291 submissions.
