Preface

These multiple volumes (LNCS volumes 10960–10964) consist of the peer-reviewedpapers presented at the 2018 International Conference on Computational Science andIts Applications (ICCSA 2018) held in Melbourne, Australia, during July 2–5, 2018.

ICCSA 2018 was a successful event in the International Conferences on Compu-tational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA) conference series, previously held inTrieste, Italy (2017), Beijing, China (2016), Banff, Canada (2015), Guimaraes, Portugal(2014), Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (2013), Salvador, Brazil (2012), Santander, Spain(2011), Fukuoka, Japan (2010), Suwon, South Korea (2009), Perugia, Italy (2008),Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (2007), Glasgow, UK (2006), Singapore (2005), Assisi, Italy(2004), Montreal, Canada (2003), and (as ICCS) Amsterdam, The Netherlands (2002)and San Francisco, USA (2001).

Computational science is a main pillar of most current research and industrial andcommercial activities and it plays a unique role in exploiting ICT innovative tech-nologies. The ICCSA conference series has been providing a venue to researchers andindustry practitioners to discuss new ideas, to share complex problems and theirsolutions, and to shape new trends in computational science.

Apart from the general tracks, ICCSA 2018 also included 33 international work-shops, in various areas of computational sciences, ranging from computational sciencetechnologies, to specific areas of computational sciences, such as computer graphicsand virtual reality. The program also featured three keynote speeches.

The success of the ICCSA conference series, in general, and ICCSA 2018, inparticular, is due to the support of many people: authors, presenters, participants,keynote speakers, session chairs, Organizing Committee members, student volunteers,Program Committee members, International Advisory Committee members, Interna-tional Liaison chairs, and people in other various roles. We would like to thank themall.

We would also like to thank Springer for their continuous support in publishing theICCSA conference proceedings and for sponsoring some of the paper awards.

Welcome to Melbourne

Welcome to “The Most Liveable City”1, Melbourne, Australia. ICCSA 2018 was heldat Monash University, Caulfield Campus, during July 2–5, 2018.

Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria, and is currently the second most populouscity in Australia, behind Sydney. There are lots of things to do and experience while inMelbourne. Here is an incomplete list:

– Visit and experience Melbourne’s best coffee shops– Discover Melbourne’s hidden laneways and rooftops– Walk along the Yarra River– Eat your favourite food (Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Italian, Greek, anything,

… you name it)– Buy souvenirs at the Queen Victoria Market– Go up to the Eureka, the tallest building in Melbourne– Visit Melbourne’s museums– Walk and enjoy Melbourne’s gardens and parks– Visit the heart-shape lake, Albert Park Lake, the home of the F1 Grand Prix– Simply walk in the city to enjoy Melbourne experience– Try Melbourne’s gelato ice cream

Basically, it is easy to live in and to explore Melbourne, and I do hope that you willhave time to explore the city of Melbourne.

The venue of ICCSA 2018 was in Monash University. Monash University is amember of Go8, which is considered the top eight universities in Australia. MonashUniversity has a number of campuses and centers. The two main campuses in Mel-bourne are Clayton and Caulfield. ICCSA 2018 was held on Caulfield Campus, whichis only 12 minutes away from Melbourne CBD by train.

The Faculty of Information Technology is one of the ten faculties at MonashUniversity. The faculty has more than 100 full-time academic staff (equivalent to therank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Professor).

I do hope that you will enjoy not only the conference, but also Melbourne.

New Frontiers in Cloud Computing for BigData and Internet-of-Things (IoT) Applications

Rajkumar Buyya1,2

Abstract. Computing is being transformed to a model consisting of services thatare commoditised and delivered in a manner similar to utilities such as water,electricity, gas, and telephony. Several computing paradigms have promised todeliver this utility computing vision. Cloud computing has emerged as oneof the buzzwords in the IT industry and turned the vision of “computing utili-ties” into a reality.

Clouds deliver infrastructure, platform, and software (application) as services, whichare made available as subscription-based services in a pay-as-you-go model to con-sumers. Cloud application platforms need to offer

1. APIs and tools for rapid creation of elastic applications and2. a runtime system for deployment of applications on geographically distributed

computing infrastructure in a seamless manner.

The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm enables seamless integration ofcyber-and-physical worlds and opening up opportunities for creating newclass ofapplications for domains such as smart cities. The emerging Fog computing isextending Cloud computing paradigm to edge resources for latency sensitive IoTapplications.

This keynote presentation will cover:

a. 21st century vision of computing and identifies various IT paradigms promising todeliver the vision of computing utilities;

b. opportunities and challenges for utility and market-oriented Cloud computing,c. innovative architecture for creating market-oriented and elastic Clouds by har-

nessing virtualisation technologies;d. Aneka, a Cloud Application Platform, for rapid development of Cloud/Big Data

applications and their deployment on private/public Clouds with resource provi-sioning driven by SLAs;

e. experimental results on deploying Cloud and Big Data/Internet-of-Things(IoT) applications in engineering, and health care, satellite image processing, andsmart cities on elastic Clouds;

f. directions for delivering our 21st century vision along with pathways for futureresearch in Cloud and Fog computing.

Approximation Problems for Digital ImageProcessing and Applications

Gianluca Vinti

Department of Mathematics and Computer Science,University of Perugia, Italy

Abstract. In this talk, some approximation problems are discussed with appli-cations to reconstruction and to digital image processing. We will also showsome applications to concrete problems in the medical and engineering fields.Regarding the first, a procedure will be presented, based on approaches ofapproximation theory and on algorithms of digital image processing for thediagnosis of aneurysmal diseases; in particular we discuss the extraction of thepervious lumen of the artery starting from CT image without contrast medium.As concerns the engineering field, thermographic images are analyzed for thestudy of thermal bridges and for the structural and dynamic analysis of build-ings, working therefore in the field of energy analysis and seismic vulnerabilityof buildings, respectively.

Short Bio Gianluca Vinti is Full Professor of Mathematical Analysis at the Departmentof Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Perugia. He is Directorof the Department since 2014 and member of the Academic Senate of the University.Member of the Board of the Italian Mathematical Union since 2006, member of the“Scientific Council of the GNAMPA-INdAM “(National Group for the MathematicalAnalysis, the Probability and their Applications) since 2013, Referent for the Mathe-matics of the Educational Center of the “Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei” at Perugiasince 2013 and Member of the Academic Board of the Ph.D. in Mathematics, Com-puter Science, Statistics organized in consortium (C.I.A.F.M.) among the University ofPerugia (Italy), University of Florence (Italy) and the INdAM (National Institute ofHigh Mathematics).

He is and has been coordinator of several research projects and he coordinates aresearch team who deals with Real Analysis, Theory of Integral Operators, Approxi-mation Theory and its Applications to Signal Reconstruction and Images Processing.

He has been invited to give more than 50 plenary lectures at conferences at variousUniversities and Research Centers. Moreover he is author of more than 115 publica-tions on international journals and one scientific monography on “Nonlinear IntegralOperators and Applications” edited by W. de Gruyter. Finally he is member of theEditorial Board of the following international scientific journals: Sampling Theory inSignal and Image Processing (STSIP), Journal of Function Spaces and Applications,Open Mathematics, and others and he holds a patent entitled: “Device for obtaininginformations on blood vessels and other bodily-cave parts”.
