This book summarizes the research findings presented at the 13th International Joint Conference on Knowledge-Based Software Engineering (JCKBSE 2020), which took place on August 24–26, 2020. JCKBSE 2020 was originally planned to take place in Larnaca, Cyprus. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic forced it be rescheduled as an online conference. JCKBSE is a well-established, international, biennial conference that focuses on the applications of artificial intelligence in software engineering. The 2020 edition of the conference was organized by Hiroyuki Nakagawa, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, Osaka University, Japan, and George A. Tsihrintzis and Maria Virvou, Department of Informatics, University of Piraeus, Greece. This research book is a valuable resource for experts and researchers in the field of (knowledge-based) software engineering, as well as general readers in the fields of artificial and computational Intelligence and, more generally, computer science wanting to learn more about the field of (knowledge-based) software engineering and its applications. An extensive list of bibliographic references at the end of each paper helps readers to probe further into the application areas of interest to them. .
