This book presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Intelligent, Interactive Systems and Applications (IISA2018), held in Hong Kong, China on June 29–30, 2018. It consists of contributions from diverse areas of intelligent interactive systems (IIS), such as: autonomous systems; pattern recognition and vision systems; e-enabled systems; mobile computing and intelligent networking; Internet & cloud computing; intelligent systems and applications. The book covers the latest ideas and innovations from both the industrial and academic worlds, and shares the best practices in the fields of computer science, communication engineering and latest applications of IOT and its use in industry. It also discusses key research outputs, providing readers with a wealth of new ideas and food for thought.

Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.

This proceedings book gives a new vision and real progress towards more difficult problems resolution. In trying to solve the problems we face every day in the complex world we are living, we are constantly developing artificial systems and increasingly complex middleware. Indeed, the research works contained in this book address a large spread of nowadays topics like IoT architectures, communication and routing protocols, smart systems, software defined networks (SDNs), natural language processing (NLP), social media, health systems, machine intelligence and data science, soft computing and optimization, and software technology. This book, which is a selective collection of research papers accepted by the international program committee of the 6th International Symposium on Modelling and Implementation of Complex Systems (MISC 2020), considers intelligence (CI) more as a way of thinking about problems. It includes a mix of old efficient (Fuzzy, NN, GA) and modern AI techniques (deep learning and CNN). The whole complex systems research community finds in this book an appropriate way to approach problems that have no algorithmic solution and finds many well-formulated technical challenges.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th IFIP International Conference on Network and Parallel Computing, NPC 2011, held in Changsha, China, in October 2011. The 28 papers presented were carefully reviewed selected from 54 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: filesystems and data, network and parallel algorithms, cluster and grid, trust and authentication, and monitor, diagnose, and then optimize.
