This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Joint Conference in Signal Processing and Information Technology, SPIT 2012, held in Dubai, UAE, in September 2012. The 32 papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 330 submissions. The papers cover research and development activities in computer science, information technology, computational engineering, image and signal processing, and communication.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the First International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Information Technology, CIIT 2011, held in Pune, India, in November 2011. The 58 revised full papers, 67 revised short papers, and 32 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 483 initial submissions. The papers are contributed by innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of computer science, information technology, computational engineering, mobile communication and security and offer a stage to a common forum, where a constructive dialog on theoretical concepts, practical ideas and results of the state of the art can be developed.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the First International Joint Conference on Advances in Signal Processing and Information Technology (SPIT 2011) and Recent Trends in Information Processing and Computing (IPC 2011) held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in December 2011. The 50 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 298 submissions. Conference papers promote research and development activities in computer science, information technology, computational engineering, image and signal processing, and communication.

This book comprises the refereed proceedings of the International Conference, AIM/CCPE 2012, held in Bangalore, India, in April 2012. The papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and focus on the various aspects of research and development activities in computer science, information technology, computational engineering, mobile communication, control and instrumentation, communication system, power electronics and power engineering.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Advances in Communication, Network, and Computing, CNC 2011, held in Bangalore, India, in March 2011. The 41 revised full papers, presented together with 50 short papers and 39 poster papers, were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers feature current research in the field of Information Technology, Networks, Computational Engineering, Computer and Telecommunication Technology, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to advanced applications.

It is my pleasure to write the preface for Information Processing and Management. This book aims to bring together innovative results and new research trends in inf- mation processing, computer science and management engineering. If an information processing system is able to perform useful actions for an obj- tive in a given domain, it is because the system knows something about that domain. The more knowledge it has, the more useful it can be to its users. Without that kno- edge, the system itself is useless. In the information systems field, there is conceptual modeling for the activity that elicits and describes the general knowledge a particular information system needs to know. The main objective of conceptual modeling is to obtain that description, which is called a conceptual schema. Conceptual schemas are written in languages called conceptual modeling languages. Conceptual modeling is an important part of requi- ments engineering, the first and most important phase in the development of an inf- mation system.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Advances in Communication, Network, and Computing, CNC 2012, held in Chennai, India, February 24-25, 2012. The 41 revised full papers presented together with 29 short papers and 14 poster papers were carefully selected and reviewed from 425 submissions. The papers cover a wide spectrum of issues in the field of Information Technology, Networks, Computational Engineering, Computer and Telecommunication Technology, ranging from theoretical and methodological issues to advanced applications.
