The present edition was hosted within the Salamanca Tech Summit by the BISITE Research Group, the AIR Institute and the City Council in Salamanca, Spain, from June 26th to 28th, 2024.

This book presents the latest research on Ambient Intelligence presented in the 16th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence (ISAmI 2024). Interested researchers can find works on advanced applications of Context-Aware Intelligence and Sensing for Smart Environments; AI-Driven Applications and Decision Support in Clinical and Personalized Healthcare; as well as Advanced AI and Interactive Systems for Emerging Technological Domains, such as Large Language Models, Extended Reality or 5G/6G networks. The symposium was organized by the Université of Lille (France), the Universidade do Minho (Portugal), the National Institute of Informatics (Japan), the Università degli Studi di Genova (Italy), the University of Granada (Spain), the AIR Institute (Spain), and the University de Salamanca (Spain). This edition of the conference was hosted by the SMAC Team of the CRIStAL Lab of the University of Lille (France) from June 25th to 27th, 2025.

We cordially welcome you to the proceedings of the 2007 International S- posium on Ubiquitous Computing Systems (UCS) held at Akihabara, Tokyo, Japan. UCS has become a symposium for the dissemination of state-of-the-art research and engineering practices in ubiquitous computing with particular - phasis on systems and software. UCS 2007 was the fourth of this series of int- nationalsymposia.ThiswastheyearfortheNextGenerationNetwork(NGN)to be commercially launched so that the Internet could become the infrastructure forcommunicationsandcomputingsubstitutingtheNGNintelephonenetworks. The maturity of the Internet encourages the research and development of the nextcomputing systems,where ubiquitous computing is recognizedasone ofthe most promising computing paradigms. This symposium was organized by IPSJ SIGUBI, IEICE USN and UCN, Korea, in cooperation with the IEEE Tokyo Section, IPSJ SIGEMB, IEICE Smart Info-media Systems Technical Group, and Human Interface Society. It was also sponsored by Ubiquitous Networking Forum, Nokia, NTT, SCAT, IISF and TAF. Thisyear,wehad96submissionsfrom18countries.TheProgramCommittee reviewed all the papers carefully and then selected 16 full papers and 8 short papers. The very low acceptance rate of about 22.6% clearly demonstrates the high quality of the conference, and this tradition will continue in the upcoming conferences. Two distinguished speakers were also invited for keynote speeches, who enlightened the audience on ubiquitous computing and applications. The high-quality technical program of UCS 2007 depends very much on the precise and stringent review process.

Along with the symposium, we also o?ered a workshop and a poster session.
