Geographically close to Mexico, but surrounded by Anglo-American culture in the United States, Chicanos experience many cultural tensions and contradictions. Their lifeways are no longer identical with Mexican norms, nor are they fully assimilated to Anglo-American patterns. Coping with these tensions-knowing how much to let go of, how much to keep-is a common concern of Chicano writers, who frequently use satire as a means of testing norms and deviations from acceptable community standards. In this groundbreaking study, Guillermo HernÁndez focuses on the uses of satire in the works of three authors-Luis Valdez, Rolando Hinojosa, and JosÉ Montoya-and on the larger context of Chicano culture in which satire operates.HernÁndez looks specifically at the figures of the pocho (the assimilated Chicano) and the pachuco (the zoot-suiter, or urbanized youth). He shows how changes in their literary treatment-from simple ridicule to more understanding and respect-reflect the culture's changes in attitude toward the process of assimilation.HernÁndez also offers many important insights into the process of cultural definition that engaged Chicano writers during the 1960s and 1970s. He shows how the writers imaginatively and syncretically formed new norms for the Chicano experience, based on elements from both Mexican and United States culture but congruent with the historical reality of Chicanos.With its emphasis on culture change and creation, Chicano Satire will be of interest across a range of human sciences.

DCAI 2022 is a forum to present applications of innovative techniques for studying and solving complex problems in artificial intelligence and computing areas. The present edition brings together past experience, current work and promising future trends associated with distributed computing, artificial intelligence and their application in order to provide efficient solutions to real problems. This year’s technical program will present both high quality and diversity, with contributions in well-established and evolving areas of research. Specifically, 46 papers were submitted, by authors from 28 different countries representing a truly “wide area network” of research activity. The DCAI’22 Special Sessions technical program has selected 22 papers (12 full papers) and, as in past editions, it will be special issues in ranked journals. This symposium is organized by the University of L'Aquila (Italy). We would like to thank all the contributing authors, the members of the Program Committee and the sponsors (IBM, Indra, Dipartimento di Ingegneria e Scienze dell'Informazione e Matematica dell'Università degli Studi dell'Aquila, Armundia Group, Whitehall Reply, T.C.

This book presents applications of innovative techniques for studying and solving complex problems in artificial intelligence and computing. This edition brings together experience, current work, and promising future trends related to distributed computing, artificial intelligence, and their applications to provide efficient solutions to real-world problems. Given the conference's success, this edition features twelve special sessions covering a wide range of topics related to AI and other areas of interest. These sessions were carefully curated to address the latest advancements and challenges in fields such as machine learning, neural networks, IoT, big data, and blockchain, among others. The accepted papers from these sessions are presented in two volumes, showcasing the diverse and innovative research being conducted in these domains. This is the first volume, which includes the sessions: Artificial intelligence for enhanced cyber security (AI4CS), AI-driven methods for multimodal networks and processes modeling (AIMPM), computational linguistics, information, reasoning, and AI (CLIRAI), novel technologies for smart industry and mobility (SmartMob), intelligent Internet of things security and privacy (WISP) and revolutionizing carbon farming by nature-based business models and emerging innovations in the field of artificial intelligence, satellite and green technologies (INNO4CFIS), each focusing on specific themes within the broader scope of AI and its applications. The DCAI’24 technical program has selected 74 papers in special sessions and, as in past editions, it will be special issues in ranked journals. This symposium is organized by the University of Salamanca (Spain). The authors would like to thank all the contributing authors, the program committee members, national associations (AEPIA, APPIA, LASI), and the sponsors (AIR Institute).

This book serves as a forum to present applications of innovative techniques for studying and solving complex problems in artificial intelligence and computing. This book brings together experience, current work, and promising future trends related to distributed computing, artificial intelligence, and their applications to provide efficient solutions to real-world problems. Given the conference’s success, this book features fifteen special sessions covering a wide range of topics related to AI and other areas of interest. The accepted papers from these sessions are presented in two volumes, showcasing the diverse and innovative research being conducted in these domains. This is the second volume, which includes the sessions: Special Session on Artificial Intelligence trends in Health & Care (AItHeC), Special Session on audio and video analysis and pattern recognition (AVARP) organized by the IA4birds project, Special Session on Crypto-Asset Exchange Platforms: Technical and Legal Aspects (CSDT), Special Session on Emerging Technologies For Cybersecurity Resilience: Blockchain, Threat Detection, And Compliance (ETCR), Special Session on Intelligent Search and Discovery in the Future Internet (ISDFI), Special Session on Quantum computing applied to industry and cybersecurity (QUINCY), Special Session on Novel Technologies for Smart Industry and Mobility (SmartMob) and Special Session on dAIEDGE: Trustworthy, Regulated, and Efficient AI on the Edge (TRUST-E) and Session for Doctoral Consortiums. The DCAI’25 technical program has selected 82 papers in special sessions and, as in previous books, there are special issues in ranked journals. This symposium is organized by the SMAC Team of the CRIStAL Lab of the University of Lille. We would like to thank all the contributing authors and the members of the Program Committee for their hard and highly valuable work.
