Intelligent software services for IoT and edge computing is an important research area for the future ubiquitous software systems and services including IoT and Edge computing. Given the recent advances in heterogeneous sensor networks and cloud services,  this research area is evolving from the traditional distributed computer systems and Internet of Things into intelligent edge computing. This future network computing will provide an environment where everyday physical objects such as buildings, sidewalks, and commodities are readable, recognizable, addressable, and even controllable using services via intelligent software provided through the Internet. The capability of integrating the information from both the physical world and the virtual one not only affects the way how we live, but also creates tremendous new business opportunities such as smart healthcare, intelligent traffic management, efficient supply chains, and improved environmental monitoring.

The research in the area of intelligent software services for IoT and edge computing will underpin many new applications of the future ubiquitous systems that are user-centric and localized. Yet, several challenges remain to be addressed with regards to software service quality and reliability, service modeling and architecture, intelligent agents, data management, resource scheduling and optimization, deployment and testing, performance monitoring, and related issues that might be raised from real-world applications.

This special issue aims at presenting the latest developments, trends, and research solutions of intelligent software services. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to: 

- Software service quality and reliability
- Software service modeling and languages for formal specification
- Software service architecture, middleware, and interoperation
- Distributed data management, data acquisition, and integration/fusion
- AI and Machne learning for adaptive software services
- Intelligent software agents
- Resource scheduling and optimization
- Security, trust, and privacy
- Software services personalization
- Context-aware services, user context modeling, retrieval, and management
- Context-based semantic matching for software services composition
- Web and social networks, context acquisition, modeling, and integration
- Semantic web and ontologies
- Software service testing and performance
- Quality-aware framework for publishing and discovering software services
- Model-driven development of adaptive software services
- Requirements engineering for software context services
- HCI in IoT/Edge applications
- User cases, real-world applications
