Pervasive computing Environments (PE) present specific peculiarities with  
respect to aspects like security and multimodality. As a matter of fact,  
the accessibility level of a virtual environment can definitively be  
improved by natural interfaces and multimodal interaction systems, which  
offer users the freedom to select from multiple modes of interaction with  
services and permit to break down barriers about human-computer interaction  
making communication intuitive and spontaneous. On the other hand, while  
enlarging and easing the ways to access to the environment, security  
threads arise and the environment must be properly equipped in order to  
protect itself from malicious attacks and/or from wrong actions performed  
by inexpert users.
SMPE-12 is the next event in a series of highly successful International  
Symposium on Security and Multimodality in Pervasive Environments (SMPE),  
and will be held in conjunction with AINA-12 in Fukuoka Institute of  
Technology(FIT), Fukuoka, Japan, March 26-29, 2012. SMPE 2012 workshop is  
the international symposium with the 6 years history about Security and  
Multimodality in Pervasive Environments: SMPE-11(In conjunction with  
AINA-11, Biopolis, Singapore, March 22 - 25, 2011), SMPE-10(In conjunction  
with AINA-10, Perth, Australia, 20-23 April, 2010), SMPE-09 (University of  
Bradford, Bradford, UK, May, 2009), SMPE-08 (Trinity College Dublin,  
Ireland, July 2008), SMPE-07 (Nice, France, September 2007). In addition,  
it is strongly supported by FTRA (Future Technology Research Association  
International) which is one of the most powerful research associations in  
Korea.

Accepted papers will be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the  
final manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. The  
proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press with 8 pages  
for each paper. Authors of accepted papers, or at least one of them, are  
requested to register and present their work at the workshop, otherwise  
their papers will be removed from the digital library after the workshop.  
Distinguished papers accepted and presented at the workshop, after further  
revisions, will be published in special issues of prestigious international
