             The Second International Symposium on
        Ubiquitous Intelligence and Smart Worlds (UISW2005)

         http://www.ubiquitous-intelligence.org/conf/uisw2005

       in conjunction with the IFIP International Conference on
             Embedded And Ubiquitous Computing (EUC'2005)

                 Nagasaki, Japan, December 6-7, 2005


 Following ubiquitous computers, networks, information, services, etc.,
 is a road towards a smart world (SW) created on both cyberspaces and
 real spaces. It is mainly characterized by ubiquitous intelligence (UI)
 or computational intelligence pervasions in the physical world
 filled with ubiquitous intelligent or smart things, which are capable
 of computing, communicating, and behaving smartly with some intelligence.
 One of the profound implications of such ubiquitous smart things is that
 various kinds and levels of intelligence will result in ubiquitous
 existence residing in everyday objects, environments, systems and even
 ourselves, and possibly being extended from man-made to natural things.
 The ubicomp or percomp can be regarded, in a sense, as the computing of
 all these intelligent/smart u-things, which are essential elements and
 components of the smart world.

 A smart thing can be endowed with different levels of intelligence from
 low to high, and may be context-aware, active, interactive, reactive,
 proactive, assistive, adaptive, automated, sentient, perceptual, cognitive,
 autonomic and/or thinking. The intelligent/smart things have become an
 emerging research field covering many disciplines. A series of grand
 challenges exist to move from the ubiquitous world with universal services
 of any means/place/time to the smart world with trustworthy services in
 the right means/place/time. This symposium of UISW2005, as a successor
 of the 1st International Workshop on Ubiquitous Smart Worlds (USW2005)
 held at Taipei in March, offers a forum for researchers to exchange ideas
 and experiences in developing intelligent/smart objects, environments
 and systems as well as discuss personal and social issues faced by the
 ubiquitous intelligence and smart worlds.
