The Sixth International Conference on Innovative Computing, Information and Control (ICICIC2011) organized by ICIC International, sponsored by Kitakyushu City, Waseda University, Tokai University, SOFT Kyushu Chapter, Dalian University, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian Maritime University, Yanshan University, Harbin University of Science and Technology, Xihua University, Northwest A&F University of Science, National Kaohsiung University of Applied Sciences, Nanjing University Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Qinhuangdao Yanda Intelligent Informatics Inc., will be held on December 22-24, 2011, Kitakyushu, Japan.

ICICIC2011 is a continuation of ICICIC2010 (Xi'an, China), ICICIC2009 (Kaohsiung, Taiwan), ICICIC2008 (Dalian, China), ICICIC2007 (Kumamoto, Japan) and ICICIC2006 (Beijing, China). The aims of the conference are to enhance international academic exchanges on related topics and to provide a chance for communications among researchers.

Accepted papers presented at ICICIC2011 will be selected and recommended for possible publication in either ICIC Express Letters (indexed by Ei Compendex, Scopus, INSPEC, etc. http://www.ijicic.org/icicel.htm), or ICIC Express Letters, Part B: Applications (indexed by Ei Compendex, Scopus, INSPEC, etc. http://www.ijicic.org/icicelb.htm).

In addition, some high standard papers presented at ICICIC2011 will be selected for possible publication in International Journal of Innovative Computing, Information and Control (IJICIC) (indexed by SCI, Ei Compendex, etc. http://www.ijicic.org) after significant extension and re-review.

The submission of a paper implies that the paper is original, has not been published or submitted under review or is not copyright-protected elsewhere, and will be presented at the conference by an author if accepted. All submitted papers will be refereed by experts in the field based on the criteria of originality, significance, quality, and clarity.
