The term ‘intelligent environment’ (IE) refers to a physical space that is enhanced by digital technologies. Such environments are designed to improve the quality of life of the people who live or work in them, and are equipped with technologies such as sensing systems and artificial intelligence which can detect changes in the environment, anticipate user requirements, and provide personalized services and experiences to users. This book presents presents papers from Workshops held during the first two days of IE2023, the 19th International Conference on Intelligent Environments, held in Mauritius between 27 and 30 June 2023, with an online participation available for those who could not travel to the island. The papers are grouped under the headings of the various workshops: the 12th International Workshop on the Reliability of Intelligent Environments (WoRIE’23); the 3rd International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Emerging Topics (ALLEGET’23); the 3rd International Workshop on Self-Learning in Intelligent Environments (SeLIE’23); the 2nd International Workshop on Edge AI for Smart Agriculture (EAISA’23); and the 12th International Workshop on Intelligent Environments Supporting Healthcare and Well-being (WISHWell’2023), and represent a diverse array of cutting-edge research reflective of this exciting area of study. The book offers an overview of the latest and most exciting developments in intelligent-environments research, and will be of interest to all those working in the field.

The four-volume set LNCS 14442 -14445 constitutes the proceedings of the 19th IFIP TC 13 International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, INTERACT 2023, held in York, UK, in August/September 2023. The 71 full papers and 58 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 406 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: 3D Interaction; Accessibility; Accessibility and Aging; Accessibility for Auditory/Hearing Disabilities; Co-Design; Cybersecurity and Trust; Data Physicalisation and Cross-device; Eye-Free, Gesture Interaction and Sign Language; Haptic interaction and Healthcare applications; Self-Monitoring; Human-Robot Interaction; Information Visualization; Information Visualization and 3D Interaction; Interacting with Children; Interaction with Conversational Agents; Methodologies for HCI; Model-Based UI Design and Testing; Montion Sickness, Stress and Risk perception in 3D Environments and Multisensory interaction; VR experiences; Natural Language Processing and AI Explainability; Online Collaboration and Cooperative work; Recommendation Systems and AI Explainability; Social AI; Social and Ubiquitous Computing; Social Media and Digital Learning; Understanding Users and Privacy Issues; User movement and 3D Environments; User Self-Report; User Studies; User Studies, Eye-Tracking, and Physiological Data; Virtual Reality; Virtual Reality and Training; Courses; Industrial Experiences; Interactive Demonstrations; Keynotes; Panels; Posters; and Workshops.

These proceedings represent the work of contributors to the 19th International Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security (ICCWS 2024), hosted University of Johannesburg, South Africa on 26-27 March 2024. The Conference Chair was Dr. Jaco du Toit, University of Johannesburg, South Africa, and the Program Chair was Prof Brett van Niekerk, from Durban University of Technology. South Africa. ICCWS is a well-established event on the academic research calendar and now in its 19th year, the key aim remains the opportunity for participants to share ideas and meet the people who hold them. The scope of papers will ensure an interesting two days. The subjects covered this year illustrate the wide range of topics that fall into this important and ever-growing area of research.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Mobile Web and Intelligent Information Systems, MobiWIS 2023, held in Marrakech, Morocco, during August 14–16, 2023. The 18 full papers and 1 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 54 submissions. The papers are divided into the following topical sections: smart and intelligent systems; digital systems in healthcare services; SDN, IoT and edge computing; mobile interfaces and interactivity; machine learning and stochastic methods; and advanced mobile applications.
