The conference was organized by the IFIP Technical Committee on Artificial Intelligence (Technical Committee 12) and Working Group 12.5 (Artificial Intelligence Applications). All papers were reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee. Final decisions were made by the Program Executive Committee, which included John Debenham (University of Technology, Sydney, Australia), Elias Maglogianis (University of Central Greece, Lamia, Greece), Ionica Mercier Laurent (Kim, France) and myself. The best papers were selected for the conference, either long papers (maximum 10 pages) or short papers (maximum 5 pages) and are included in this volume. The international nature of the IFIP is clearly reflected in the large number of countries represented here. I would like to thank the Conference Chair, Tharam Dhillon, for all his efforts and our Program Committee members to review the papers under a very fine line.
