A SW is mainly characterized by ubiquitous intelligence (UI) or computational intelligence pervasive in the physical world, filled with ubiquitous intelligent or smart <span lang="ja">real </span>things, that are capable of computing, communicating, and behaving smartly with some intelligence. One of the profound implications of such ubiquitous smart things is that various kinds and levels of intelligence will exist ubiquitously in everyday objects, environments, systems and even ourselves, and possibly be extended from man-made to natural <span lang="ja">thing</span>s. <span lang="ja">&quot;</span>Ubicomp&quot; or <span lang="ja">&quot;</span>percomp<span lang="ja">&quot;</span> can be regarded as the computing of all these intelligent/smart <span lang="ja"> real </span>things, i.e., u-things,<span lang="ja"> </span>that are essential elements and components of the SW. </P> <P></P> <P>A smart thing can be endowed with different levels of intelligence, and may be context-aware, active, interactive, reactive, proactive, assistive, adaptive, automated, sentient, perceptual, cognitive, autonomic and/or thinking. Intelligent/smart things is an emerging research field covering many disciplines. A series of grand challenges exist to move from the ubiquitous world with universal services of any means/place/time to the SW of trustworthy services with the right means/place/time. UISW2005 is a successor of the 1st International Workshop on Ubiquitous Smart Worlds (USW2005) held at Taipei in March, and offers a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in developing intelligent/smart objects, environments, and systems as well as discuss <span lang="ja">various </span>personal<span lang="ja">/</span>social<span lang="ja">/physical</span> issues faced by UI and SWs. </P> <P><B>TOPICS</B> <BR>Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:</P> <P><B>1.
