Advanced Technology in Teaching ─ Proceedings of 2009 3rd International Conference on Teaching and Computational Science (WTCS 2009): Intelligent Ubiquitous Computing and Education

The series "Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing" contains publications on various areas within the so-called soft computing, which include fuzzy sets, rough sets, neural networks, evolutionary computations, probabilistic and evidential reasoning, multi-valued logic, and related fields. The publications within "Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing" are primarily textbooks and proceedings of important conferences, symposia and congresses. They cover significant recent developments in the field, both theoretical and applied. An important feature of the series is the short publication time and world-wide distribution, allowing a rapid and broad dissemination of research results.

The volume includes a set of selected papers extended and revised from the International Conference on Teaching and Computational Science (WTCS 2009) held on December 19-20, 2009, Shenzhen, China.

WTCS 2009 best papers Volume 1 is to provide a forum for researchers, educators, engineers, and government officials involved in the general areas of Intelligent Ubiquitous Computing and Education to disseminate their latest research results and exchange views on the future research directions of these fields. 128 high-quality papers are included in the volume. Each paper has been peer-reviewed by at least 2 program committee members and selected by the volume editor Prof.Wu.

On behalf of the WTCS 2009, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to all of authors and referees for their efforts reviewing the papers. Hoping you can find lots of profound research ideas and results on the related fields of Intelligent Ubiquitous Computing and Education.
