This book constitutes the proceedings of the Second International Conference on Citizen Sensor Networks, CitiSens 2013, held in Barcelona, Spain, in September 2013. The 8 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 16 submissions. The topics covered are: trajectory mining, smart cities, multi-agents systems, networks simulation, smart sensors and clustering or data anonymization.
As depicted in David Lodge's celebrated novel Small World, the perceived size of our world experienced a progressive decrease as jet airplanes became affordable to ever greater shares of the earth's population. Yet, the really dramatic shrinking had to wait until the mid-1990s, when Internet became widespread and the information age stopped being an empty buzzword. But small is not necessarily beautiful. We now live in a global village and, alas, some (often very powerful) voices state that we ought not expect any more privacy in it. Should this be true, we would have created our own nightmare: a global village combining the worst of conventional villages, where a lot of information on an individual is known by the other villagers, and conventional big cities, where the invidual feels lost in a grim and potentially dangerous place. Whereas security is essential for organizations to survive, individuals and so- times even companies also need some privacy to develop comfortably and lead a free life. This is the reason why individual privacy is mentioned in the Univ- sal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) and data privacy is protected by law in most Western countries. Indeed, without privacy, the rest of fundamental rights, like freedom of speech and democracy, are impaired. The outstanding challenge is to create technology that implements those legal guarantees in a way compatible with functionality and security. This book edited by Dr. Javier Herranz and Dr.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence, MDAI 2020, held in Sant Cugat, Spain, in September 2020.* The 24 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. They discuss different facets of decision processes in a broad sense and present research in data science, data privacy, aggregation functions, human decision making, graphs and social networks, and recommendation and search. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: aggregation operators and decision making, and data science and data mining. * The conference was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference
proceedings of the First International Workshop on Citizen Sensor
Networks, CitiSens 2012, in Montpellier, France, on August 27,
