WORKSHOP BACKGROUND AND GOLS
The development and availability of new computing and communication devices,
and the increased connectivity between these devices, thanks to wired and
wireless networks, are enabling new opportunities for people to perform their
operations anywhere and anytime. Furthermore, due to the high acceptance
rate of such devices by the user community, it is expected that these devices
will become so pervasive that most users will take them for granted. Generally
known as Ubiquitous Computing (UC), the vision of UC is to push computational
services out of conventional desktop interfaces into environments characterized
by transparent forms of interactivity.
Despite the growing interest in UC, there is still some progress to be made
before UC shifts from the research mode to the commercial and intensive use
modes. The support technologies, however, are improving at an impressive pace.
Most of the research and development activities are currently aimed at
improving the devices themselves and the technologies these devices will use
to communicate. At present, the main use of mobile devices is still voice-oriented,
but several indicators show that this is changing. 3G networks (e.g., GPRS,
UMTS) and recent development of communication and presentation protocols
(e.g., XML, WAP) are being combined to give users a high-quality experience
of data-centric services.
Besides the central role that hardware infrastructure plays in the expansion
and penetration of UC, other issues still need to be tackled to better assist
developers of UC applications. Developers are put on the front line of satisfying
the promise of businesses and service providers for delivering Internet content
to mobile devices. Indeed, the fact that an application for mobile users has
different requirements, calls for new techniques to identify and specify these
requirements. With regard to users, it is expected that they will be frequently
engaged in complex operations such as searching the net for better business
opportunities. Therefore, their association with intelligent components, to
act as proxies, is deemed appropriate. UC environments of the near future will
be populated by a large number of computing devices, spread across the network,
and often invisible. These devices need to be coordinated for better interactions.
Devices, whether carried on by people or embedded into other systems (within the
home or at other sites), will constitute a global networking infrastructure --
and likely to provide a new level of openness and dynamics. These interactions
raise many new issues that draw upon existing research areas, as well as introduce
new research and development challenges, in technical areas (such as device design,
wireless communication, location sensing, etc), psychology (privacy concerns,
attention focus, multi-person interaction, etc), and design (direct interaction,
work patterns, etc.).
Existing global efforts in Grid Computing also shares some similarities with the
aims of this workshop, although Grid computing at present is restricted to
high-end computational resources. Making the Grid more open, and accessible to
a wider range of users will also require the need to address similar challenges.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
In this workshop, we aim to identify ecent and significant developments in the
general area of ubiquitous computing. Topics of interests include, but are not
limited to:
- Mobile computing vs. Pervasive computing vs. Ubiquitous computing.
- Design methodologies and evaluation techniques.
- Grid Computing technologies for Wireless networks
- Context awareness.
- Agent-based ubiquitous applications.
- Services for ubiquitous applications.
- Middleware for service discovery.
- Integration of wired and wireless networks.
- Enabling technologies such as Bluetooth, 802.11, etc.
- Security and privacy issues.
- Visionary future scenarios.
- Mobile services
- Performance tuning of mobile applications
FORMAT OF THE WORKSHOP
The workshop will consist of oral presentations. The proceedings of the workshop
will be published in the form of a book by ICEIS.
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
There will be two types of papers: long (approx. 5000 words) and short
(approx. 2000 words). Furthermore, a keynote speaker and a discussion panel are
planned. Postscript/RTF versions of the manuscript should be submitted
thru ICEIS web-based paper submission procedure.

************* Hybrid Evolutionary Systems ************
Evolutionary Computation has become an important problem solving
methodology among many researchers working in the area of
computational intelligence. The population based collective learning
process, self adaptation and robustness are some of the key features
of evolutionary algorithms when compared to other global optimization
techniques. Evolutionary computation has been widely accepted for
solving several important practical applications in engineering,
business, commerce etc. As we all know, the problems of the future
will be more complicated in terms of complexity and data volume.
Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms is getting popular due to
their capabilities in handling several real world problems involving
complexity, noisy environment, imprecision, uncertainty and vagueness.
A fundamental stimulus to the investigations of hybrid approach is the
awareness that combined approaches will be necessary to solve some of
the real world problems. This edited volume is targeted to present the
latest state-of-the-art methodologies in 'Hybrid Evolutionary
Systems'. Editors invite authors to submit their original and
unpublished work that communicates current research on 'Hybrid
Evolutionary Systems', regarding both the theoretical and
methodological aspects, as well as various applications to many real
world problems from science, technology, business or commerce.
Topics of interest include but not limited to the following:
I. Optimizing the Performance of Evolutionary Algorithms
* Neural networks assisted evolutionary computation
* Bayesian methods assisted evolutionary computation
* Fuzzy system assisted evolutionary computation
* Rough sets assisted evolutionary computation
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with particle swarm optimization
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with other global
optimization techniques (simulated annealing, Tabu search, GRASP etc.)
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with bacterial foraging
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with molecular computing
(DNA computing and membrane computing)
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with quantum computing
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with optical computing
* Hybridization of evolutionary algorithms with other bionics
II. Optimization of Intelligent Systems Using Evolutionary Computation
* Evolutionary artificial neural networks
* Evolutionary fuzzy systems (genetic fuzzy systems)
* Integration with connectionist learning and fuzzy inference systems
* Integration of evolutionary computation with case-based reasoning,
inductive logic programming, grammatical inference etc.
* Integration with Multi-Agent Systems
III. This volume is also oriented towards real world applications
where a direct approach might fail.
* Multiobjective optimization applications
* Financial modeling
* Intrusion detection and cryptography
* NP hard problems
* Bioinformatics
* Data mining
* Knowledge management
* Natural language processing
* Image processing
* Nonlinear network problems
* Planning and scheduling
* Brain-computer interface technologies

THEME
Autonomic Computing and Neuroinformatics
Cognitive Informatics (CI) is a cutting-edge and multidisciplinary
research
area that tackles the fundamental problems shared by modern informatics,
computation, software engineering, AI, cybernetics, cognitive science,
neuropsychology, medical science, systems science, philosophy,
linguistics,
economics, management science, and life sciences. CI is the
transdisciplinary study into the internal information processing
mechanisms
and processes of the natural intelligence – human brains and minds – and
their engineering applications in computing and ICT industries.
The development and the cross fertilization between the aforementioned
science and engineering disciplines have led to a whole range of
extremely
interesting new research areas known as CI. Following the first four
successful conferences on Cognitive Informatics (ICCI’02 through
ICCI’05),
the 5th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Informatics (ICCI’06)
focuses on the theme of Autonomic Computing and Neuroinformatics. The
objectives of ICCI’06 are to draw attention of researchers,
practitioners
and graduate students to the investigation of cognitive mechanisms and
processes of human information processing, and to stimulate the
international effort on cognitive informatics research and engineering
applications.
SCOPE
Original papers are invited from multidisciplinary perspectives on
subject
areas including, but not limited to, natural intelligence (NI),
autonomic
computing (AC), and Neuroinformatics.

The 2006 International Conference on Computational Science and its
Applications (ICCSA 2006)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Technical Session on GeoComputation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Paper
The 2006 International Conference on Computational Science and its
Applications (http://www.iccsa.org/) will be held at The Hilton
Glasgow, Scotland, UK from May 8-11, 2006.
Aim of the Technical Session:
Computational science involves using computers to study scientific
problems. GeoComputation is the art and science of solving complex
spatial problems with computers. It is focused on the research,
development and application of spatial information technologies to
address social, economic and environmental problems at human and
geographical scales.
Geocomputation is concerned with new computational techniques,
algorithms, and paradigms that are dependent upon and can take advantage
of high performance computing (HPC) and high throughput computer (HTC).
It includes spatial data analysis, dynamic modelling, simulation,
space-time dynamics and visualization and virtual reality.
GeoComputation represents a conscious attempt to move the research
agenda back to geographical analysis and modelling, with or without GIS
in tow. Its concern is to enrich geography with a toolbox of methods to
model and analyze a range of highly complex, often non-deterministic
problems. It is about not compromising the geography, nor enforcing the
use of unhelpful or simplistic representations. It is a conscious effort
to explore the middle ground from the doubly-informed perspective of
geography and computer science. A true enabling technology for the
quantitative geographer, a rich source of computational and
representational challenges for the computer scientist.
This conference will offer presentations from a variety of sources, both
local, national and international and will enable you to network with
others working in similar fields.
Invitation to Submit a Paper
We invite you to submit a paper to the Technical Session on
Geocomputation. You may submit a full paper of a maximum of 6 to 10
pages (Letter or A4 paper) for oral presentation. Submitted papers have
to be original, containing new and original results. The submitted paper
must be camera-ready and formatted according to the rules of LNCS. For
formatting information, see the publishers web site
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Submission implies the
willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the
paper.
The submission must be performed electonically only through
