Laurence T. Yang is a professor in the Department of Computer science at St. Francis Xavier University. He graduated from Tsinghua University, China and got his Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Victoria, Canada. His current research includes parallel and distributed computing, embedded and ubiquitous/pervasive computing, big data. He has published around 300 international journal papers in the above areas of which 50% are IEEE/ACM Transactions and Journals; others are mainly published at Elsevier, Springer and Wiley. He has been involved actively in conferences and workshops as a program/general/steering conference chair and numerous conference and workshops as a program committee member. He served as the vice-chair of IEEE CS Technical Committee of Supercomputing Applications (2001-2004), the chair of IEEE CS Technical Committee of Scalable Computing (2008-2011), and the chair of IEEE CIS Task force on UbiquitousComputing and Intelligence (2009-2013). He was in the steering committee of IEEE/ACM Supercomputing conference series (2008-2011), and was in the National Resource Allocation Committee (NRAC) of Compute Canada (2009-2013), as well as the scientific committee chair (2012-2013) for Engineering, Mathematics and Computing Science of Compute Canada. He was the vice-chair (2014) and the chair (2015) of IEEE Canada Atlantic Section.  Now he is the chair of IEEE SMC Technical Committee on Cybermatics (2016-) and vice-chair of IEEE CIS Task Force on Smart World (2016-). In addition, he is the editors-in-chief of several international journals. He is serving as an editor for many international journals (such as IEEE Systems Journal, IEEE Access, Future Generation of Computer Systems (Elsevier), Information Sciences (Elsevier), Information Fusion (Elsevier), Big Data Research (Elsevier)). He has been acting as an author/co-author or an editor/co-editor of more than 25 books from well-known publishers. The book "Mobile Intelligence" from Wiley 2010 received an Honorable Mention by the American Publishers Awards for Professional and Scholarly Excellence (The PROSE Awards).  Antonio Esposito graduated in July 2013 with a master thesis on the recognition of Design Patterns from UML documentation through semantic approaches. Currently he is a Ph.D. student at the Second University of Naples and he is working on extending his previous research to analyze source code for patterns recognition. He participated in research projects supported by international and national organizations, such as CoSSMic Smart Cities FP7, Toreador H2020.
