The aim of the book is to introduce new developments in Ambient Intelligence from researchers of several countries. The book includes different works in the area of Ubiquitous Computing, e-Health, Ambient Assisted Living, Distributed Computing and Context Aware Computing that have been selected by an international committee. The studies have been presented in the 9th International Symposium on Ambient Intelligence held in Toledo in June 2018.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems, IDCS 2018, held in Tokyo, Japan, in October  2018. The 21 full papers presented together with 5 poster and 2 short papers in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. This conference desired to look for inspiration in diverse areas (e.g., infrastructure and system design, software development, big data, control theory, artificial intelligence, IoT, self-adaptation, emerging models, paradigms, applications and technologies related to Internet-based distributed systems) to develop new ways to design and mange such complex and adaptive computation resources.

This book represents the combined peer-reviewed proceedings of the Seventh International Symposium on Intelligent Distributed Computing - IDC-2013, of the Second Workshop on Agents for Clouds - A4C-2013, of the Fifth International Workshop on Multi-Agent Systems Technology and Semantics - MASTS-2013,and of the International Workshop on Intelligent Robots - iR-2013.All the events were held in Prague, Czech Republic during September 4-6, 2013.The 41 contributions published in this book address many topicsrelated to theory and applications of intelligent distributedcomputing and multi-agent systems, including:agent-based data processing, ambient intelligence, bio-informatics, collaborative systems, cryptography and security, distributed algorithms, grid and cloud computing, information extraction, intelligent robotics, knowledge management, linked data, mobile agents, ontologies, pervasive computing, self-organizing systems, peer-to-peer computing, social networks and trust, and swarm intelligence.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Collective Intelligence, ICCCI 2014, held in Seoul, Korea, in September 2014. The 70 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 205 submissions. They address topics such as knowledge integration, data mining for collective processing, fuzzy, modal and collective systems, nature inspired systems, language processing systems, social networks and semantic web, agent and multi-agent systems, classification and clustering methods, multi-dimensional data processing, Web systems, intelligent decision making, methods for scheduling, image and video processing, collective intelligence in web systems, computational swarm intelligence, cooperation and collective knowledge.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the International Conference on Scalable Information Systems, INFOSCALE 2014, held in September 2014 in Seoul, South Korea. The 9 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 14 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics such as scalable data analysis and big data applications.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Big data Technologies and Applications, BDTA 2016, held in Seoul, South Korea, in November 2016.  BDTA 2016 was collocated with the First International Workshop on Internet of Things, Social Network, and Security in Big Data, ISSB 2016 and the First International Workshop on Digital Humanity with Big Data, DiHuBiDa 2016. The 17 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions and handle theoretical foundations and practical applications which premise the new generation of data analytics and engineering.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8thInternational Conference on Big Data Technologies and Applications, BDTA 2017, held in Gwangju, South Korea, in November 2017. The 15 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions and handle theoretical foundations and practical applications which premise the new generation of data analytics and engineering. The contributions deal with following topics: privacy and security, image processing, context awareness, s/w engineering and e-commerce, social media and health care.

The book consists of 35 extended chapters which have been based on selected submissions to the poster session organized during the 3rd Asian Conference on Intelligent Information and Database Systems (20-22 April 2011 in Daegu, Korea). The book is organized into four parts, which are information retrieval and management, data mining and computational intelligence, service composition and user-centered approach, and intelligent management and e-business, respectively. All chapters in the book discuss theoretical and practical issues related to integration of artificial intelligence and database technologies in order to develop various intelligent information systems in many different domains. Such combination of artificial intelligence and database technologies has been regarded as one of the important interdisciplinary subfields of modern computer science, due to the sustainable development of networked information systems. Especially, service-oriented architecture and global multimedia systems used on a number of different purpose call for these developments. The book will be of interest to postgraduate students, professors and practitioners in the areas of artificial intelligence and database systems to modern information environments. The editors hope that readers of this volume can find many inspiring ideas and influential practical examples and use them in their future work.
