Dasarathy (Ph. D, FIEEE, Editor-in-Chief of Information Fusion): "Information Fusion as Aid for Qualitative Enhancement of Intelligence Extraction in Multi-Source Environments - A Panoramic View of Architectures, Algorithms and Applications" Andrea Omicini (Professor of Computer Science, University of Bologna): "Nature-inspired Coordination for Complex Distributed Systems" Tutorials --------- Programming Workflow Systems through WADE, Giovanni Caire (Telecom Italia, Turin) Programming Wireless Sensor Networks through MAPS, Giancarlo Fortino (University of Calabria, Italy) --------- THE TOPIC --------- Intelligent computing covers a hybrid palette of methods and techniques derived from classical artificial intelligence, computational intelligence, multi-agent systems a.o. Distributed computing studies systems that contain loosely-coupled components running on different networked computers and that communicate and coordinate their actions by message transfer. The emergent field of intelligent distributed computing is expected to pose special challenges of adaptation and fruitful combination of results of both areas with a great impact on the development of new generation intelligent distributed information systems. The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers involved in intelligent distributed computing to allow cross-fertilization and synergy of ideas and to enable advancement of researches in the field. The symposium welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of intelligent distributed computing ranging from concepts and theoretical developments to advanced technologies and innovative applications. Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their relevance to the symposium theme, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions. Topics include, but are not limited to: Intelligent Distributed Architecture ------------------------------------ Hybrid systems involving software agents and human actors Intelligent integration of data and processes Intelligent cloud infrastructures Agent-based Wireless Sensor Networks Multi-Agent Systems Distributed frameworks and middleware for the Internet of Things Organisation and Management --------------------------- Autonomic and adaptive distributed computing Intelligent service composition and orchestration Self-organising and adaptive distributed systems Emerging behaviours in complex distributed systems Intelligent Distributed Knowledge Representation and Processing --------------------------------------------------------------- Information extraction and retrieval in distributed environments Knowledge integration and fusion from distributed sources Data mining and knowledge discovery in distributed environments Semantic and knowledge grids Ontologies and meta-data for describing heterogeneous resources and services Distributed fusion of sensor data streams Networked intelligence ---------------------- E-service and Web intelligence Intelligence in mobile and ubiquitous computing Intelligence in Peer-to-Peer systems Intelligence in Distributed Multimedia Systems Trust and Reputation Intelligent Distributed Applications ------------------------------------ Distributed problem solving and decision making Intelligent applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government, crisis management Modelling and simulation of intelligent distributed systems Agent-oriented methodologies for distributed application development --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Full paper submission: April 30, 2012 - Extended Deadline (firm) Notification of acceptance: May 30, 2012 Final (camera ready) paper due: June 15, 2012 Symposium: September 24-26, 2012 ------------ ORGANIZATION ------------ Steering Committee ------------------ Janusz Kacprzyk, Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland Costin Badica,  University of Craiova, Romania Michele Malgeri, University of Catania, Italy George A.
