This book constitutes the proceedings of the 2009 International Conference on U- and E-Service, Science and Technology, UNESST 2009, held in conjunction with the International Conference on Future Generation Information Technology, FGIT 2009, on December 10-12, 2009, in Jeju Island, Korea. The FGIT 2009 conference received 1051 submissions in total, of which 301 papers were selected to be presented at one of the events taking place as part of it. The 23 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected for presentation at UNESST 2009. They focus on various aspects of u- and e-service, science and technology with computational sciences, mathematics and information technology and recent advances in these areas.

U- and E-Service, Science and Technology

As future generation information technology (FGIT) becomes specialized and fr- mented, it is easy to lose sight that many topics in FGIT have common threads and, because of this, advances in one discipline may be transmitted to others. Presentation of recent results obtained in different disciplines encourages this interchange for the advancement of FGIT as a whole. Of particular interest are hybrid solutions that c- bine ideas taken from multiple disciplines in order to achieve something more signi- cant than the sum of the individual parts. Through such hybrid philosophy, a new principle can be discovered, which has the propensity to propagate throughout mul- faceted disciplines. FGIT 2009 was the first mega-conference that attempted to follow the above idea of hybridization in FGIT in a form of multiple events related to particular disciplines of IT, conducted by separate scientific committees, but coordinated in order to expose the most important contributions. It included the following international conferences: Advanced Software Engineering and Its Applications (ASEA), Bio-Science and Bio-Technology (BSBT), Control and Automation (CA), Database Theory and Application (DTA), D- aster Recovery and Business Continuity (DRBC; published independently), Future G- eration Communication and Networking (FGCN) that was combined with Advanced Communication and Networking (ACN), Grid and Distributed Computing (GDC), M- timedia, Computer Graphics and Broadcasting (MulGraB), Security Technology (SecTech), Signal Processing, Image Processing and Pattern Recognition (SIP), and u- and e-Service, Science and Technology (UNESST).
