PrefaceThis year the 14th WSEAS Internati<strong>on</strong>al C<strong>on</strong>ference <strong>on</strong> <strong>COMPUTERS</strong> (Part of the 14thWSEAS CSCC Multic<strong>on</strong>ference) was held <strong>on</strong> Corfu Island, Greece, July 23-25, 2010. Thec<strong>on</strong>ference remains faithful to its original idea of providing a platform to disc<strong>us</strong>s algorithms andtheory of computati<strong>on</strong>, artificial intelligence, graphics, computer networking, militarycommunicati<strong>on</strong>s, programming languages, fault tolerance, computati<strong>on</strong>al linguistics, algorithmsand multiplexity, microprocessors, microcomputers, mobile computing, intelligent agents,mathematical logic and computers, image, video and internet technologies, web-based educati<strong>on</strong>,modelling and simulati<strong>on</strong> etc. with participants from all over the world, both from academia andfrom ind<strong>us</strong>try.Its success is reflected in the papers received, with participants coming from several countries,allowing a real multinati<strong>on</strong>al multicultural exchange of experiences and ideas.The accepted papers of this c<strong>on</strong>ference are published in this Book that will be indexed by ISI.Please, check it: www.worldses.org/indexes as well as in the CD-ROM Proceedings. They willbe also available in the E-Library of the WSEAS. The best papers will be also promoted in manyJournals for further evaluati<strong>on</strong>.A C<strong>on</strong>ference such as this can <strong>on</strong>ly succeed as a team effort, so the Editors want to thank theInternati<strong>on</strong>al Scientific Committee and the Reviewers for their excellent work in reviewing thepapers as well as their invaluable input and advice.The Editors

In general, this requires a dynamic bounds check each time an array element isaccessed, which limits the performance of array intensive scientific applicati<strong>on</strong>s implemented in Java. However, if itcan be proven that the array index is within the bounds of the array, the check can be eliminated. We present a newalgorithm based <strong>on</strong> extended Static Single Assignment (eSSA) form that builds a c<strong>on</strong>straint system representingc<strong>on</strong>trol flow qualified, linear c<strong>on</strong>straints am<strong>on</strong>g program variables derived from program statements. Our system thenderives relati<strong>on</strong>ships am<strong>on</strong>g variables, and provides a verifiable proof of its c<strong>on</strong>cl<strong>us</strong>i<strong>on</strong>s. This proof can be verified bya runtime system to minimize the analysis’ performance impact. Our system simultaneo<strong>us</strong>ly c<strong>on</strong>siders both c<strong>on</strong>trolflow and data flow when analyzing the c<strong>on</strong>straint system, handles general linear inequalities instead of simpledifference c<strong>on</strong>straints, and provides verifiable proofs for its claims. We present experimental results dem<strong>on</strong>stratingthat this method eliminates more bounds checks than prior approaches with minimal overhead during JIT compilati<strong>on</strong>.Furthermore our algorithm increased the speed at which the Java benchmarks executed by up to 16%.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Kleanthis Psarris is Professor and Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at SanAnt<strong>on</strong>io.

Like humans, the artificial intelligence systems <strong>us</strong>e color for pattern recogniti<strong>on</strong>. There are a lot ofsystems for pictorial c<strong>on</strong>tent representati<strong>on</strong> and recogniti<strong>on</strong> based <strong>on</strong> color features. First secti<strong>on</strong> is dedicated to theevaluati<strong>on</strong> of the color spaces for computer visi<strong>on</strong>. One c<strong>on</strong>siders the c<strong>on</strong>versi<strong>on</strong> from the c<strong>on</strong>venti<strong>on</strong>al RGB spaceinto a color space with improved pattern recogniti<strong>on</strong> performances. In the sec<strong>on</strong>d secti<strong>on</strong>, we present the model ofC<strong>on</strong>current Neural Classifiers (CNC) representing a collecti<strong>on</strong> of small neural networks, which <strong>us</strong>e a global winnertakes-allstrategy. Each neural module is trained to correctly classify the patterns of <strong>on</strong>e class <strong>on</strong>ly and the number ofmodules equals the number “M” of classes. One c<strong>on</strong>siders the case of choosing the SOM (Self-Organized-Map) as aneural module.

A maximum clique is a clique ofthe maximum size. Th<strong>us</strong>, a maximum clique stands for a maximum collecti<strong>on</strong> of objects which are mutually related insome specified criteri<strong>on</strong>.The so called maximum clique problem, or the complementary problem, the maximum independent set problem, is<strong>on</strong>e of the original 21 problems shown to be NP-complete by R. Karp. Therefore, it is str<strong>on</strong>gly believed that themaximum clique problem is not solvable easily, i.e., it is not solvable in polynomial-time. Nevertheless, much workhas been d<strong>on</strong>e <strong>on</strong> this problem, experimentally and theoretically. It attracts much attenti<strong>on</strong> especially recently since ithas found many practical applicati<strong>on</strong>s.In this lecture, we are c<strong>on</strong>cerned with recent progress of efficient algorithms for finding a maximum clique. We foc<strong>us</strong><strong>on</strong> branch-and-bound algorithms in which appropriate bounding c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong> is most crucial. The step-by-stepimprovements <strong>on</strong> the bounding c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong> and their effectiveness are presented. Some algorithms for generating allmaximal cliques are also shown. We give evaluati<strong>on</strong>s <strong>on</strong> these algorithms not <strong>on</strong>ly experimentally but alsotheoretically. We also give a natural c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong> in which the maximum clique problem can be proved to be polynomialtimesolvable.In additi<strong>on</strong>, we address successful applicati<strong>on</strong>s of these algorithms to bioinformatics, image processing, data mining,and others.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Etsuji Tomita received his B.

The semantic computati<strong>on</strong> is defined by means of an interpretati<strong>on</strong> such that eachnode of S becomes an object of a real world and an arc describes a transformati<strong>on</strong>al process of two objects. Finallythe result of the formal computati<strong>on</strong> is interpreted by means of the semantic computati<strong>on</strong>.In this lecture we are c<strong>on</strong>cerned with recent progress in this domain. More precisely, the <strong>us</strong>e of semantic schemas toobtain cooperating structures in order to increase the generative power of this mechanism of knowledgerepresentati<strong>on</strong> and reas<strong>on</strong>ing systems is presented. We foc<strong>us</strong> <strong>on</strong> the following cooperating structures based <strong>on</strong>semantic schemas: master-slave systems and hierarchical distributed reas<strong>on</strong>ing systems. The first structure includes<strong>on</strong>e master schema and several slave-schemas. These structures cooperate in a specific manner in order to find ananswer to a query. The sec<strong>on</strong>d structure is an arborescent <strong>on</strong>e, such that each node is a semantic schema and thecooperati<strong>on</strong> is based <strong>on</strong> a transfer of knowledge between nodes. Other kinds of cooperating structures are alsodisc<strong>us</strong>sed: cooperati<strong>on</strong> based <strong>on</strong> maximal graphs and cooperati<strong>on</strong> based <strong>on</strong> inheritance. Several applicati<strong>on</strong>s ofcooperating structures based <strong>on</strong> semantic schemas are disc<strong>us</strong>sed: image generati<strong>on</strong>, semantics of communicati<strong>on</strong>,c<strong>on</strong>tact centers, dialogue systems.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Nicolae Tandareanu received the diploma in mathematics and Ph.D. from the University of Bucharest, Romania, in1970 and 1975, respectively.

This isdue to significant advances in computer graphics and animati<strong>on</strong> technologies, and availability of low cost off-the-shelfdigital image manipulati<strong>on</strong> and cl<strong>on</strong>ing tools. With lack of proper regulatory frameworks and infrastructure forprosecuti<strong>on</strong> of such evolving cyber-crimes, there is an increasing dissatisfacti<strong>on</strong> about <strong>us</strong>e of such tools for lawenforcement, and a feeling of cynicism and mistr<strong>us</strong>t am<strong>on</strong>g the civilian operating envir<strong>on</strong>ments.Another problem this has lead to, is a slow diff<strong>us</strong>i<strong>on</strong> of otherwise extremely efficient image based surveillance andidentity authenticati<strong>on</strong> technologies in real-world civilian operating scenarios. In this talk, we present novel algorithmicframeworks being developed for detecting image tampering and forgery based <strong>on</strong> different source features, theirtransformati<strong>on</strong> in optimal subspaces and and statisical modelling of intra-frame and inter-frame image pixel subblocks in video sequences. The proposed algorithmic models allow detecting the tamper or forgery in low-bandwidthvideo (Internet streaming videos), <strong>us</strong>ing blind and passive tamper detecti<strong>on</strong> techniques and attempt to model thesource signatures embedded in camera pre-processing chain, and show immense potential in detecti<strong>on</strong>s of evolvingimage tampering attacks, such as JPEG double compressi<strong>on</strong>, re-sampling and retouching. The promising resultsobtained can result in the development of digital image forensic tools, that can help investigate and solve evolvingcyber crimes.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Dr. Girija Chetty has a Bachelors and Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from India anda PhD in Informati<strong>on</strong> Sciences and Engineering from University of Canberra, A<strong>us</strong>tralia.

R.E-mail: wanggy@ieee.orgAbstract: Uncertainty exists almost everywhere in the whole world. Uncertain knowledge expressing and processinghas become <strong>on</strong>e of the most important key problems of artificial intelligence research. There are many kinds ofuncertainties in knowledge, such as randomness, fuzziness, vagueness, incompleteness, inc<strong>on</strong>sistency, etc.Randomness and fuzziness are the two most important and fundamental <strong>on</strong>es. There are many studies aboutrandomness and fuzziness in the past decades. Many theories and models for expressing and processing uncertainknowledge, such as probability & statistics, fuzzy set, rough set, interval analyses, cloud model, grey system, set pairanalyses, extenic, etc have been proposed. In this talk, some key expanded set theories for expressing andprocessing uncertain knowledge, such as fuzzy set, rough set, type-II fuzzy set, interval-valued fuzzy set, intuiti<strong>on</strong>isticfuzzy set, and cloud model are disc<strong>us</strong>sed. Their key idea and basic noti<strong>on</strong>s are introduced. Their difference andrelati<strong>on</strong>ship are further analyzed. Rough set theory, which expresses and processes uncertain knowledge with certainmethods, is disc<strong>us</strong>sed in detail. At first, the growing history of rough set theory is introduced briefly, and thedeveloping trend of rough set theory is analyzed in several views. Then, the expansi<strong>on</strong> of rough set theory toclassical set theory is explained. The key set operators of rough set theory, such as intersecti<strong>on</strong>, uni<strong>on</strong>, difference,and complement, are explained with noti<strong>on</strong>s of classical set theory. Rough logic defined <strong>on</strong> informati<strong>on</strong> systems isalso analyzed. Several typical applicati<strong>on</strong> cases of rough set theory in artificial intelligence fields, such as faultdiagnosis, intelligent decisi<strong>on</strong>, image processing, huge data processing, intelligent c<strong>on</strong>trol and etc., are disc<strong>us</strong>sed toshow the power of rough set for dealing with real world problems. These applicati<strong>on</strong> cases ill<strong>us</strong>trate the importanceand advantages of rough set theory for expressing and processing the uncertain problems. At last, some key topicsand problems to be further studied in the future for expressing and processing uncertain knowledge are disc<strong>us</strong>sed.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Professor Guoyin Wang was born in Ch<strong>on</strong>gqing, China, in 1970.

MazlackApplied Artificial Intelligence LaboratoryUniversity of CincinnatiUSAE-mail: mazlaclj@ucmail.uc.eduAbstract: Ca<strong>us</strong>al reas<strong>on</strong>ing percepti<strong>on</strong>s play an essential role in human decisi<strong>on</strong>-making. Recognizing anddeveloping ca<strong>us</strong>al relati<strong>on</strong>ships is essential for reas<strong>on</strong>ing; it forms the basis for acting intelligentially in the world.Ca<strong>us</strong>al knowledge provides a deep understanding of a system; and, the potential c<strong>on</strong>trol over a system that comesfrom being able to predict acti<strong>on</strong>'s c<strong>on</strong>sequences. Relati<strong>on</strong>ships with a known ca<strong>us</strong>e/effect relati<strong>on</strong>ship have a highdecisi<strong>on</strong> value. Ca<strong>us</strong>ality descripti<strong>on</strong> m<strong>us</strong>t necessarily be imperfect as knowledge is imperfect and limited.Comm<strong>on</strong>sense understanding of the world tells <strong>us</strong> that we have to deal with imprecisi<strong>on</strong>, uncertainty and imperfectknowledge. C<strong>on</strong>sequently, knowledge of at least some ca<strong>us</strong>al effects is inherently imprecise. A difficulty is striking agood balance between precise formalism and comm<strong>on</strong>sense imprecise reality.Ca<strong>us</strong>ality is imprecisely granular in many ways. Ca<strong>us</strong>al complexes are groupings of smaller ca<strong>us</strong>al relati<strong>on</strong>s thatmake up a large grained ca<strong>us</strong>al object. Usually, comm<strong>on</strong>sense reas<strong>on</strong>ing is more successful in reas<strong>on</strong>ing about afew large-grained events than many fine-grained events. However, the larger-grained ca<strong>us</strong>al objects are necessarilymore imprecise as some of their c<strong>on</strong>stituent comp<strong>on</strong>ents. A satisficing soluti<strong>on</strong> might be to develop large-grainedsoluti<strong>on</strong>s and then <strong>on</strong>ly go to the finer-grain when the impreciseness of the large-grain is unsatisfactory.Brief Biography of the Speaker:Professor Mazlack studied computer science and applied mathematics at Washingt<strong>on</strong> University (St. Louis) andelectrical engineering at both SDSM&T and Marquette University. He received his Doctorate of Science fromWashingt<strong>on</strong> University. He also studied philosophy at both Washingt<strong>on</strong> University and at Marquette University. Al<strong>on</strong>gthe way to his degrees, he did research in computer science, electrical engineering, and biomedical engineering. AtMarquette both a Bac<strong>on</strong> Scholarship and an athletic scholarship (football) supported him. He is a member of theOmega Rho h<strong>on</strong>orary. He has been a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley (imprecise reas<strong>on</strong>ing)and at the University of Geneva (computati<strong>on</strong>al linguistics).
