This book discusses the convergence of emerging technologies that might be used to deal with issues of protecting the environment, energy sustainability, and climate change mitigation, ultimately creating a more resilient and sustainable future. It examines the intersection between energy production and consumption, and the significant influence this has on the Earth's climate. The aim is to increase public awareness of the significance of constructing a sustainable and green society by utilizing a variety of environmentally-friendly practices, and to emphasize the advantages of implementing green policies and practices for people, communities, and the environment at large. The authors present global examples of effective environmental policies and sustainable development projects. They promote communication and cooperation between many stakeholders, including government, corporations, non-governmental organizations, and individuals, in order to work toward a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future, and to offer useful advice and materials to help readers adopt eco-friendly habits and ways of living in order to move toward a more sustainable way of living.

It is with great pleasure that we present the proceedings of the 6th Inter- tional, Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC 2010), which was held in Las Vegas, Nevada. ISVC provides a common umbrella for the four main areas of visual computing including vision, graphics, visualization, and virtual reality. The goal is to provide a forum for researchers, scientists, engineers, and pr- titioners throughout the world to present their latest research ?ndings, ideas, developments, and applications in the broader area of visual computing. This year, the program consisted of 14 oral sessions, one poster session, 7 special tracks, and 6 keynote presentations. The response to the call for papers was very good; we received over 300 submissions for the main symposium from which we accepted 93 papers for oral presentation and 73 papers for poster p- sentation. Special track papers were solicited separately through the Organizing and Program Committees of each track. A total of 44 papers were accepted for oral presentation and 6 papers for poster presentation in the special tracks.
