As information technologies (IT) become specialized and fragmented, it is easy to lose sight that many topics in IT have common threads and because of this, advances in one sub-discipline may transmit to another. The presentation of results between different sub-disciplines of IT encourages this interchange for the advancement of IT as a whole. Of particular interest is the hybrid approach or combining ideas from one discipline with those of another to achieve a result that is more significant than the sum of the individual parts. Through this hybrid philosophy, a new or common principle can be discovered which has the propensity to propagate throughout this multifaceted discipline. This volume comprises the selection of extended versions of papers that were presented in their shortened format the 2006 International Conference on Hybrid InformationTechnology(http://www.sersc.org/ICHIT2006/).Sixty-four papers out of the 235 that were published in ICHIT 2006 electronic proceedings were deemed suitable for inclusion in this volume, in a selection that was guided by technical quality and relevance to the balance of topics in hybrid information technology. The conference reflected a change in the thinking of scientists and practitioners, who now tend to join their efforts within multidisciplinary projects. As a consequence, the readers may observe that many papers might conceivably be classified into more than one chapter, given their interdisciplinary scope. The contributions in this monograph are clustered into six chapters: Data Analysis, Modeling, and Learning (11 papers); Imaging, Speech, and Complex Data (11 papers); Applications of Artificial Intelligence (11 papers); Hybrid, Smart, and Ubiquitous Systems(11papers);Hardware and Software Engineering(9papers); as well as Networking and Telecommunications (11 papers).

In today's society the issue of security has become a crucial one. The use of knowledge-based technology in security applications emerges with important applications in monitoring, control, crisis and rescue management. This volume contains extended and improved versions of selected contributions presented at the International Workshop "Monitoring, Security and Rescue Techniques in Multiagent Systems" (MSRAS 2004) held in Plock, Poland, June 7-9, 2004, bringing together world's leading researchers in the field.

Thisvolumecontainsthepapersselectedforpresentationatthe7thInternational Conference on Rough Sets and Current Trends in Computing (RSCTC 2010) held at the University of Warsaw, Poland, during June 28-30, 2010. This was the seventh edition of the event that has established itself as the main forum for exchange of ideas between researchersin various areasrelated to rough sets. In 2010, the conference went back to its origins both in terms of its location (the ?rst RSCTC conference was held in Warsaw, Poland in 1998) and in terms of topic coverage.The dates also markthe third anniversaryofRSEISP 2007 a conference dedicated to the memory of Zdzis law Pawlak. RSCTC2010wastoprovideresearchersandpractitionersinterestedineme- inginformationtechnologiesaforumtoshareinnovativetheories,methodologies, and applications in rough sets and its extensions. In keeping with the spirit of past rough set-based conferences, RSCTC 2010 aimed to explore synergies with other closely related areas such as computational intelligence, knowledgedisc- ery from databases and data mining, non-conventional models of computation, andWebmining.Majortopicscoveredintheseproceedingsinclude:approximate anduncertainreasoning,bioinformatics,dataandtextmining,dominance-based roughsetapproaches,evolutionarycomputing,fuzzysettheoryandapplications, logical and mathematical foundations of rough sets, perceptual systems as well as applications of rough sets and its extensions in areas such as medicine, Web intelligence and image processing. The papers included in the special and - dustrial sessions cover learning methods and mining of complex data, soft c- puting applications to multimedia and telemedicine, knowledge representation and exchange in multi-agent systems and emerging intelligent technologies in the telecommunications industry. There were 148 valid (out of 163 in total) submissions to RSCTC 2010. Every paper was examined by at least two reviewers. Out of the papers initially selected,somewereapprovedsubjecttorevisionandthenadditionallyevaluated.
