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: Ą°Heaven above, 
Suzhou and Hangzhou below.Ąą 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, 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 the areas of advanced computing for problems in science and 
engineering applications.

the EasyChair paper submission system . Each paper is limited to 12 pages (or 16 pages with the over length charge).

All accepted papers of the conference will first appear in U-disk proceedings (without ISBN number), and then all accepted papers will be published in 
special issues of refereed international journals to be indexed by SCI and EI (special issues will be announced soon). The program committee will 
select two winners for the Best Paper Awards for this conference. Submitting a paper to the conference means that, if the paper is accepted, at least
