ACRI conferences have been o?ering since 1994 a biennial scienti?c meeting to both scientists and innovation managersin academia and industriy to express and discuss their viewpoints on current and future trends, challenges, and sta- of-the-art solutions to various problems in the ?elds of arts, biology, chemistry, communication, ecology, economy, engineering, networks, physics, socialscience, and tra?c control. ACRI 2010 was organized by the Complex Systems and - ti?cial Intelligence (CSAI) research center of the University of Milano-Bicocca as a forum for the presentation and discussion of specialized results as well as general contributions to the growth of the cellular automata approach and its application. Cellular automata represent a very powerful approach to the study of spatio-temporal systems where complex phenomena are built up out of many simple localinteractions. The ACRI conferenceserieswas?rstorganizedin Italy (ACRI1994inRende, ACRI1996inMilan, andACRI1998inTrieste), andafter having moved to other Europeanand international settings, this year came back to Italy: ACRI 2000 in Karlsruhe (Germany), ACRI 2002 in Geneva (Switz- land), ACRI 2004 in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), ACRI 2006 in Perpignan (France), and ACRI 2008 in Yokohama (Japan).

This volume collects the papers selected for presentation at the IX Congress of the Italian Association for Arti?cial Intelligence (AI*IA), held in Milan at the University of Milano-Bicocca (September 21-23, 2005). On the one hand this congress continues the tradition of AI*IA in organizing its biannual s- enti?c meeting from 1989; on the other hand, this edition is a landmark in the involvement of the international community of arti?cial intelligence (AI), directly involving a broad number of experts from several countries in the P- gramCommittee. Moreover,the peculiar nature of scienti?c researchin arti?cial intelligence (which is intrinsically international) and several consolidated int- national collaborations in projects and mobility programs allowed the collection and selection of papers from many di?erent countries, all around the world, enlarging the visibility of the Italian contribution within this research ?eld. Arti?cial intelligence is today a growing complex set of conceptual, theor- ical, methodological, and technological frameworks, o?ering innovative com- tational solutions in the design and development of computer-based systems. Within this perspective, researchers working in this area must tackle a broad range of knowledge about methods, results, and solutions coming from di?erent classical areas of this discipline. The congress was designed as a forum allowing researchers to present and discuss specialized results as general contributions to AI growth.
