Ubiquitous sensors, devices, networks and information are paving the way towards a smart
world in which computational intelligence is distributed throughout the physical environment toprovide reliable and relevant services to people. This ubiquitous intelligence will change thecomputing landscape because it will enable new breeds of applications and systems to be
developed and the realm of computing possibilities will be significantly extended. By enhancing
everyday objects with intelligence, many tasks and processes could be simplified, the physicalspaces where people interact like the workplaces and homes, could become more efficient,safer and more enjoyable. Ubiquitous computing, or pervasive computing, uses these many“smart things or u-things” to create smart environments, services and applications.
A smart thing can be endowed with different levels of intelligence, and may be context-aware,
active, interactive, reactive, proactive, assistive, adaptive, automated, sentient, perceptual,
cognitive, autonomic and/or thinking. Research on ubiquitous intelligence is an emerging
research field covering many disciplines. A series of grand challenges exist to move from thecurrent level of computing services to the smart world of adaptive and intelligent services.
Started in 2005, the series of UIC conferences has been held in Taipei, Nagasaki, Three Gorges(China), Hong Kong, Oslo, Brisbane, Xi’an, and Banff. UIC 2012 will include a highly selective
program of technical papers, accompanied by workshops, panel discussions and keynote
speeches. Established as a premier venue in the area of ubiquitous intelligence and computing,
UIC 2012 will offer a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in developing
intelligent/smart objects, environments and systems.

Computing systems including hardware, software, communication, and networks are growing towards
an ever-increasing scale and heterogeneity, becoming overly complex. Such complexity is getting evenmore critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices and other pervasive systems. To
cope with the growing and ubiquitous complexity, Autonomic Computing (AC) focuses on
self-manageable computing and communication systems that exhibit self-awareness,
self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection and other self-x operations to the
maximum extent possible without human intervention or guidance. Organic Computing (OC) additionally addresses adaptivity, robustness, and controlled emergence as well as nature-inspired concepts for
self-organization.
Any autonomic or organic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and in pervasive
infrastructures are key factors to enable dynamic interaction and cooperation of various users, systems,
and services. Trusted/Trustworthy Computing (TC) aims at making computing and communication systems as well as services available, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persistent, security/privacy protectable, etc.
A series of grand challenges exists to achieve practical autonomic or organic systems with truly trustworthy services. Started in 2005, the series of ATC conferences has been held at Nagasaki, Vienna, Three
Gorges (China), Hong Kong, Oslo, Brisbane, Xian, and Banff. ATC 2012 will include a highly selective program of technical papers, accompanied by workshops, panel discussions and keynote speeches. Established as a premier venue in the area of autonomic and trusted computing, ATC 2012 will offer a forum
for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in the most innovative research and development inthese challenging areas and includes all technical aspects related to autonomic/organic computing(AC/OC) and trusted computing (TC). Topics include but are not limited to the following:- AC/OC Theory and Models
Models, negotiation, cooperation, competition,
self-organization, emergence, verification, etc.

- AC/OC Architectures and Systems
Autonomic elements & their relationship, frameworks,
middleware, observer/controller architectures,
institutional architectures , etc.

- AC/OC Components and Modules
Multi-core CPU, memory, storage, database, device,server, proxy, software, OS, I/O, etc.

- AC/OC Communication and Services
Networks, self-organized net, web service, P2P, grid,
EaaS, cloud, etc.

- AC/OC Tools and Interfaces
Tools/interfaces for AC/OC system development,
test, monitoring, assessment, supervision, etc.

- Trust Models and Specifications
Models and semantics of trust, distrust, mistrust,over-trust, cheat, risk, reputation, reliability, etc.

- Trust-related Security and Privacy
Trust-related secure architecture, framework, policy,
Intrusion detection/awareness, protocols,
trust-adaptive agents and communities, etc.

- Trusted Reliable and Dependable Systems
Fault-tolerant systems, hardware redundancy,
robustness, survivable systems, failure recovery, etc.

- Trustworthy Services and Applications
Trustworthy Internet/web/P2P/grid/cloud services,
secure mobile services, novel applications, etc.

General Information
ICA3PP-12 is the 12th in this series of conferences started in 1995 that are devoted to algorithms andarchitectures for parallel processing. ICA3PP is now recognized as the main regular event of the world thatcovers the many dimensions of parallel algorithms and architectures, encompassing fundamental theoretical
approaches, practical experimental projects, and commercial components and systems. As applications ofcomputing systems have permeated in every aspects of daily life, the power of computing system has become
increasingly critical. This conference provides a forum for academics and practitioners from countries aroundthe world to exchange ideas for improving the efficiency, performance, reliability, security and interoperabilityof computing systems and applications.
ICA3PP-12 will be run in technical co-sponsorship (pending) with the IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society
Technical Committee on Scalable Computing. ICA3PP-2012 will be co-located with UIC-2012 and ATC-2012
conferences.
