This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Active Media Technology, AMT 2013, held in Maebashi, Japan, in October 2013. The 26 revised full papers presented together with 2 short papers, 16 workshop papers, and 12 special session papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on active computer systems, interactive systems, and application of AMT based systems; active media machine learning and data mining techniques; AMT for semantic web, social networks, and cognitive foundations. Additionally, the main topic of the workshop papers is: intelligence for strategic foresight; and for the special session papers: technologies and theories of narrative; evolutionary computation and its application; and intelligent media search techniques.

The aim of this book is to gather the most recent works that address issues related to the concept of mining complex data. The whole knowledge discovery process being involved, our goal is to provide researchers dealing with each step of this process by key entries. Actually, managing complex data within the KDD process implies to work on every step, starting from the pre-processing (e.g. structuring and organizing) to the visualization and interpretation (e.g. sorting or filtering) of the results, via the data mining methods themselves (e.g. classification, clustering, frequent patterns extraction, etc.). The papers presented here are selected from the workshop papers held yearly since 2006.

They were organized in topical sections named: Blockchains and smart contracts, Architectures, microservices and APIs, Applications, Internet-of-Things, crowdsourced, social, and conversational services, Service composition and recommendation, Cloud computing, and Edge computing.

This book constitutes revised and selected papers from the scientific satellite events held in conjunction with the18th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2020. The conference was held virtually during December 14-17, 2020. A total of 125 submissions were received for the satellite events. The volume includes 9 papers from the PhD Symposium Track, 4 papers from the Demonstration Track, and 45 papers from the following workshops: International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) International Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Threat Investigations Challenges in Emerging Infrastructures (CFTIC 2020) 2nd Workshop on Smart Data Integration and Processing (STRAPS 2020) International Workshop on AI-enabled Process Automation (AI-PA 2020) International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in the IoT Security Services (AI-IOTS 2020)

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC 2020, which was planned to take place in Dubai, UAE, during December 14-17, 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held online. The 23 full, 16 short, and 3 industry papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 137 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: microservices; Internet of Things; services at the edge; machine learning for service oriented computing; smart data and smart services; service oriented technology trends; industry papers.

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the International Workshop on Data Quality and Trust in Big Data, QUAT 2018, which was held in conjunction with the International Conference on Web Information Systems Engineering, WISE 2018, in Dubai, UAE, in November 2018. The 9 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 15 submissions. They deal with novel ideas and solutions related to the problems of exploring, assessing, monitoring, improving, and maintaining the quality of data and trust for Big Data.
