Dear Reader, it is our pleasure to present to you Proceedings of the 2010 International Multiconference on Computer Science and Information Technology (IMCSIT), which took place in Wisła, Poland, on October 18–20, 2010. IMCSIT 2010 and was co-located with the XXVI Autumn Meeting of the Polish Information Processing Society (PIPS).
IMCSIT is a result of the evolutionary process. In 2005 a Scientific Session took place during the XXI Autumn Meeting of PIPS and consisted of 27 refereed presentations. After this relative success (we have advertised the Session very late in the year) we have decided to expand and extend it into a full-blown conference but continue cooperation (co-location) with the Autumn Meetings of PIPS. As a result of a steady growth, in 2010, IMCSIT consisted of the following events (and Proceedings are organized into sections that correspond to each of them):
- 5th International Symposium
Advances in Artificial Intelligence and Applications (AAIA'10),
- Workshop on Agent Based Computing: from Model to Implementation VII (ABC:MI'10),
- International Workshop on Advances in Business ICT (ABICT'10),
- Computer Aspects of Numerical Algorithms (CANA'10),
- Computational Linguistics—Applications (CLA'10),
- 10th International Multidisciplinary Conference on e-Commerce and e-Government (ECOM&EGOV'10),
- International Symposium on E-Learning—Applications (EL-A'10),
- 6th Workshop on Large Scale Computations on Grids and 1st Workshop on Scalable Computing in Distributed Systems (LaSCoG-SCoDiS'10),
- 2nd International Workshop on Medical Informatics and Engineering (MI&E'10),
- 3rd International Symposium on Multimedia—Applications and Processing (MMAP'10),
- International Workshop on Real Time Software (RTS'10),
- 4th International Workshop on Secure Information Systems (SIS'10),
- International Symposium on Technologies for Social Advancement (T4SA'10),
- Workshop on Ad-Hoc Wireless Networks (WAHOC'10),
- Workshop on Computational Optimization (WCO'10).
Each of these events had its own Organizing and Program Committee (listed in these Proceedings). We would like to express our warmest gratitude to members of all of them for their hard work in attracting and later refereeing 201 submissions.
