| Summary |
This book presents the latest techniques, algorithms, research accomplishments and trend in computer science and engineering. It collects together 222 peer reviewed papers presented at the 11th Joint International Computer Conference. The theme of this year is "IT : Intellectual Capital for the Betterment of Human Life." The articles in this book cover a wide range of active and interesting areas such as Digital Entertainment, Grid Computing, Embedded System, Web Service and Knowledge Engineering. This book serves as a good reference not only for researchers but also for graduate students in corresponding fields. The proceedings have been selected for coverage in: Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings); CC Proceedings - Engineering & Physical Sciences. |
