*** Overview ***
PlatCon-14 will be the first event of the PlatCon conference series which  
is hosted and organized the ICT Platform Society (ICTPS) and  ICRP. This  
conference will be one of most comprehensive conferences in the field of  
Platform Technology (PT). The main focus of PlatCon-14 is various PT  
research issues, but also its coverage can be extended to a wide spectrum  
of topics related to PT and its service domains. And PlatCon-14 would be a  
professional and informative forum for scientists, engineers, experts,  
professors, and students in the areas of Information Technology, Computing  
Technology, Communication & Network, HCI, Business & Management,  
Intelligent System, IT-based Convergence Research, and also in  
multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary research fields.

During the last decade, many countries have adopted in recent years roadmap  
for developing the future infrastructure in emerging platform technology  
areas such as automobile, big data processing technology, biotechnology,  
nanotechnology, grid computing and ICT (Information and Communication  
Technology). Our special interest lies in both theoretical and practical  
research contributions presenting new techniques, concepts, or analysis,  
reports on experiences and experiments of implementation and application of  
theories, and tutorials on new technologies and trends in various  
platforms/services areas and in all relevant scientific/engineering areas.
