This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Wireless Algorithms, Systems and Applications, WASA 2014, held in Harbin, China, in June 2014. The 41 revised full papers presented together with 30 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 134 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics including cognitive radio networks, wireless sensor networks, cyber-physical systems, distributed and localized algorithm design and analysis, information and coding theory for wireless networks, localization, mobile cloud computing, topology control and coverage, security and privacy, underwater and underground networks, vehicular networks, information processing and data management, programmable service interfaces, energy-efficient algorithms, system and protocol design, operating system and middle-ware support and experimental test-beds and models.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereedpost-workshop proceedings of the 16th Chinese Lexical Semantics Workshop, CLSW2015, held in Beijing, China, in May 2015. The 64 regular and 4 short papers included in this volumewere carefully reviewed and selected from 248 submissions.

This book constitutes the workshop proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2016, held in Dallas, TX, USA, in April 2016.The volume contains 32 full papers (selected from 43 submissions) from 4 workshops, each focusing on a specific area that contributes to the main themes of DASFAA 2016: The Third International Workshop on Semantic Computing and Personalization, SeCoP 2016; the Third International Workshop on Big Data Management and Service, BDMS 2016; the First International Workshop on Big Data Quality Management, BDQM 2016; and the Second International Workshop on Mobile of Internet, MoI 2016.

The Third International Conference on Advanced Data Mining and Applications (ADMA) organized in Harbin, China continued the tradition already established by the first two ADMA conferences in Wuhan in 2005 and Xi’an in 2006. One major goal of ADMA is to create a respectable identity in the data mining research com- nity. This feat has been partially achieved in a very short time despite the young age of the conference, thanks to the rigorous review process insisted upon, the outstanding list of internationally renowned keynote speakers and the excellent program each year. The impact of a conference is measured by the citations the conference papers receive. Some have used this measure to rank conferences. For example, the independent source cs-conference-ranking.org ranks ADMA (0.65) higher than PAKDD (0.64) and PKDD (0.62) as of June 2007, which are well established conferences in data mining. While the ranking itself is questionable because the exact procedure is not disclosed, it is nevertheless an encouraging indicator of recognition for a very young conference such as ADMA.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Web-Age Information Management, WAIM 2012, held in Harbin, China in August 2012. The 32 revised full papers presented together with 10 short papers and three keynotes were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 178 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on wireless sensor networks; data warehousing and data mining; query processing; spatial databases; similarity search and queries; XML and Web data; graph and uncertain data; distributed computing; data security and management; information extraction and integration; and social networks and modern Web services.
