The two LNAI volumes 7208 and 7209 constitute the proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Hybrid Artificial Intelligent Systems, HAIS 2012, held in Salamanca, Spain, in March 2012. The 118 papers published in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 293 submissions. They are organized in topical sessions on agents and multi agents systems, HAIS applications, cluster analysis, data mining and knowledge discovery, evolutionary computation, learning algorithms, systems, man, and cybernetics by HAIS workshop, methods of classifier fusion, HAIS for computer security (HAISFCS), data mining: data preparation and analysis, hybrid artificial intelligence systems in management of production systems, hybrid artificial intelligent systems for ordinal regression, hybrid metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization and modelling complex systems, hybrid computational intelligence and lattice computing for image and signal processing and nonstationary models of pattern recognition and classifier combinations.

Learning Technology for Education in Cloud investigates how cloud computing can be used to design applications to support real time on demand learning using technologies. The workshop proceedings provide opportunities for delegates to discuss the latest research in TEL (Technology Enhanced Learning) and its impacts for learners and institutions, using cloud.

The Workshop on Learning Technology for Education in Cloud (LTEC '12) is a forum where researchers, educators and practitioners came together to discuss ideas, projects and lessons learned related to the use of learning technology in cloud, on the 11th-13th July at Salamanca in Spain.
