Introduction

Welcome to participate in the 7th International Conference on Frontier
of Computer Science and Technology (FCST-12), Suzhou, China, November
21-23, 2012!

In ancient China, Suzhou was the Capital of the Kingdom of Wu from the
12th to 4th centuries, B.C. As an old Chinese saying goes: "Heaven
above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below." Suzhou is well known in China and
abroad for its wonderful landscapes, elegant gardens, and various
stone bridges, as well as its eminent historical and cultural values.

FCST-12 is intended to facilitate effective communications and
exchanges all over the world. It will not only reflect the significant
progresses that are currently being made in computer science and
technology, but also represent a powerful and unique forum for
discussing innovative and cutting-edge advances in all aspects of
computer science and technology from researchers and practitioners in
academia, government and corporate institutions around the globe.

FCST-12 derives from the Japan-China Joint Workshop on Frontier of
Computer Science and Technology. It follows the success of FCST 2011
in Changsha, China; FCST 2010 in Changchun, China; FCST 2009 in
Shanghai, China; FCST 2008 in Nagasaki, Japan; FCST 2007 in Wuhan,
China; and FCST 2006 in Aizu-Wakamatsu, Japan. The conference aims to
bring together computer scientists, mathematicians, engineers and
researchers to Suzhou, in order to present, discuss and exchange
ideas, results, work-in-progresses and experiences, in a variety of
areas in computer science and technology.
