"Intelligent Control and Automation" constitutes the results of the International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2006, held in Kunming, China, in August 2006. The carefully reviewed contributions are included in five volumes of edited books, including one volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), one volume of Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), one volume of Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI), and two volumes of Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences (LNCIS). The 142 revised full papers of this volume were reviewed and selected from over 3000 submissions. The papers are organized in 4 topical sections on Blind Source Separation, Intelligent Sensor Networks, Intelligent Control and Automation as well as Data Fusion, Knowledge Discovery, and Data Mining. In addition there is a special session on Special Session on Smart and Intelligent Home Technology.

" Intelligent Computing in Signal Processing and Pattern Recognition " constitutes the results of the International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2006, held in Kunming, China, in August 2006. The carefully reviewed contributions are included in five volumes of edited books, including one volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), one volume of Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI), one volume of Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics (LNBI), and two volumes of Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences (LNCIS). The 149 revised full papers of this volume were reviewed and selected from over 3000 submissions, covering the field of Intelligent Computing in Signal Processing and Pattern Recognition, as well as a Special Session on Computing for Searching Strategies to Control Dynamic Processes.

The International Conference on Intelligent Computing (ICIC) was formed to provide an annual forum with dedication to the emerging and challenging topics in artificial intelligence, machine learning, bioinformatics, and computational biology, etc. It aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from both the academia and industry to share ideas, problems and solutions related to the multifaceted aspects of intelligent computing. The ICIC 2006 to be held in Kunming, Yunnan, China, 16-19 August 2006 is the second International Conference on Intelligent Computing, which is built upon the success of ICIC 2005 held in Hefei, China, 2005. This year, the conference mainly concentrates on the theories & methodologies as well as the emerging applications of intelligent computing. It intends to unify the contemporary intelligent computing techniques within an integral framework that highlights the trends in advanced computational intelligence and bridges the theoretical research with the applications. In particular, the bio-inspired computing emerges as a key role in pursuing for novel technology in recently years. The resulting techniques vitalize the life science engineering and daily life applications. In light of this trend, the theme for this conference is the Emerging Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications. Papers related to this theme were especially solicited, including theories, methodologies, and applications in science and technology.
