About this Series

The series “Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing” contains publications on theory,applications, and design methods of Intelligent Systems and Intelligent Computing. Virtually alldisciplines such as engineering, natural sciences, computer and information science, ICT, eco-nomics, business, e-commerce, environment, healthcare, life science are covered. The list of top-ics spans all the areas of modern intelligent systems and computing.

The publications within “Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing” are primarilytextbooks and proceedings of important conferences, symposia and congresses. They cover sig-nificant recent developments in the field, both of a foundational and applicable character. Animportant characteristic feature of the series is the short publication time and world-wide distri-bution. This permits a rapid and broad dissemination of research results.

Preface

This book contains a selection of papers accepted for presentation and discussion at The2015 World Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (WorldCIST’15).This Conference had the support of the University of the Azores, AISTI (Iberian As-sociation for Information Systems and Technologies / Associação Ibérica de Sistemase Tecnologias de Informação), ATI (Informatics Technical Association / Asociación deTécnicos de Informática), LIACC (Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science Labo-ratory) and GIIM (Global Institute for IT Management). It took place at University ofthe Azores, Ponta Delgada, São Miguel, Azores, Portugal, from 1st to 3rd April 2015.

The World Conference on Information Systems and Technologies (WorldCIST) isa global forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss recent resultsand innovations, current trends, professional experiences and challenges of modernInformation Systems and Technologies research, technological development and ap-plications. One of its main aims is to strengthen the drive towards a holistic symbiosisbetween academy, society and industry. WorldCIST’15 built on the successes of World-CIST’13, held in 2013 in Olhão, Algarve, Portugal and WorldCIST’14 which took placeon 2014 in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal

The Program Committee of WorldCIST’15 was composed of a multidisciplinarygroup of experts and those who are intimately concerned with Information Systemsand Technologies. They have had the responsibility for evaluating, in a ‘blind review’process, the papers received for each of the main themes proposed for the Conference:A) Information and Knowledge Management (IKM); B) Organizational Models andInformation Systems (OMIS); C) Intelligent and Decision Support Systems (IDSS);D) Big Data Analytics and Applications (BDAA); E) Software Systems, Architectures,Applications and Tools (SSAAT); F) Multimedia Systems and Applications (MSA); G)Computer Networks, Mobility and Pervasive Systems (CNMPS); H) Human-ComputerInteraction (HCI); I) Health Informatics (HIS); J) Information Technologies in Educa-tion (ITE); K) Information Technologies in Radiocommunications (ITR).

WorldCIST’15 also included workshop sessions taking place in parallel with the con-ference ones. Workshop sessions covered themes such as i) Applied Statistics and DataAnalysis using Computer Science – ASDACS; ii) Big Data Systems and Technologies– BDST; iii) Business Intelligence in Organisations – BIO; iv) Computer Supported

WorldCIST’15 received contributions from 43 countries around the world. The pa-pers accepted for presentation and discussion at the Conference are published bySpringer (this book) and by AISTI (another e-book) and will be submitted to be in-dexed by ISI, EI, SCOPUS, DBLP and/or EBSCO, among others. Extended versionsof best selected papers will be published in relevant journals, including SCI/SSCI andScopus indexed journals.

We acknowledge all those who contributed to the staging of WorldCIST15 (authors,committees and sponsors); their involvement and support is very much appreciated.
