2008 IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence (WCCI 2008) Applications of Computational Intelligence to Benefit Society Workshop Keeley Crockett is a Senior Lecturer in Computing in the Department of Computer and Mathematics at Manchester Metropolitan University. She gained a BSc Degree (Hons) in Computation from UMIST in 1993, and a PhD in the field of machine learning from the Manchester Metropolitan University in 1998 entitled "Fuzzy Rule Induction from Data Domains". She also obtained a P.G.C.E from The University of Huddersfield in June 2000. Her main research interests include the areas of fuzzy decision trees, rule induction, applications of fuzzy theory, biologically inspired algorithms, and data mining. She is author or co-author of more than 29 papers published in specialized journals and congress proceedings. She has also adapted and co-authored a book on Database Systems to be published January 2008. She is a member of the Intelligent Systems Group which has established a strong international presence in its research into Conversational Agents and Adaptive Psychological Profiling including an international patent on "Silent Talker". She currently has 6 PhD students (2 as Director of studies and 4 co-supervisions). She was also a lead investigator on a Teaching Company Scheme. She is a knowledge engineer and founding member of Convagent Ltd, a company set up in collaboration with Manchester Metropolitan University, which provides business rule automation with natural language interfaces using conversational agents. She is a committee member of the IEEE Women into Computational Intelligence Society and a full member of the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society. She is also a full member of the Institute of Educational Assessors. Publications Refereed Journals K. Crockett, Z. Bandar, J O’Shea, J.
