As we stand at the precipice of the twenty first century the
ability to capture and transmit copious amounts of information is
clearly a defining feature of the human race. In order to increase
the value of this vast supply of information we must develop means
for effectively processing it. Newly emerging disciplines such as
Information Engineering and Soft Computing are being developed in
order to provide the tools required. Conferences such as the
International Conference on Information Processing and
ManagementofUncertainty in Knowledge-based Systems (IPMU) are being
held to provide forums in which researchers can discuss the latest
developments. The recent IPMU conference held at La Sorbonne in
Paris brought together some of the world's leading experts in
uncertainty and information fusion. In this volume we have included
a selection ofpapers from this conference. What should be clear
from looking at this volume is the number of different ways that
are available for representing uncertain information. This variety
in representational frameworks is a manifestation of the different
types of uncertainty that appear in the information available to
the users. Perhaps, the representation with the longest history is
probability theory. This representation is best at addressing the
uncertainty associated with the occurrence of different values for
similar variables. This uncertainty is often described as
randomness. Rough sets can be seen as a type of uncertainty that
can deal effectively with lack of specificity, it is a powerful
tool for manipulating granular information.

The volume LNCS 7269 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the
International Symposium on Swarm Intelligence and Differential
Evolution, SIDE 2012, held in Zakopane, Poland, in April/May 2012
in conjunction with the 11th International Conference on Artificial
Intelligence and Soft Computing, ICAISC 2012 (proceedings published
as two-volume set LNAI 7267 and 7268). The 212 revised full papers
presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 483
submissions. The volume is divided into two topical parts:
proceedings of the 2012 symposium on swarm intelligence and
differential evolution and on evolutionary algorithms and their
applications.

These two volumes consisting of Foundations and Applications
provide the current status of theoretical and empirical
developments in "computing with words." In philosophy, the
twentieth century is said to be the century of language. This is
mainly due to Wittgenstein who said: "The meaning of a word is its
use in the language game." "The concept game is a concept with
blurred edges." In the first phrase, "the language game" implies
the everyday human activity with language, and in the latter,
"game" simply implies an ordinary word. Thus, Wittgenstein
precisely stated that a word is fuzzy in real life. Unfortunately
this idea about a word was not accepted in the conventional
science. We had to wait for Zadeh's fuzzy sets theory. Remembering
Wittgenstein's statement, we should consider, on the one hand, the
concept of "computing with words" from a philosophical point of
view. It deeply relates to the everyday use of a word in which the
meaning of a word is fuzzy in its nature.

This landmark in the development of the state space approach was
written by two pioneers in the field. It chiefly concerns the
technique's application to systems described by differential
equations. Problems of stability and controllability receive
particular attention, and connections between this approach and
classical techniques are highlighted. 1963 edition.
