Dear colleague, The WSEAS staff welcome you to another prestigious event. Since 1996, the World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society has proudly organized a vast number of successful conferences and published the work of hundreds of scientists from all over the world. We and our affiliate NAUN would like to express our sincere gratitude to you for helping us continue our mission by honoring us with your presence in this conference. WSEAS publications have succeeded in joining most important International Scientific Indexes and Libraries. Thanks to our latest efforts of adopting strict deadlines and a more rigorous review process, the quality of our proceedings and journals is continuing to rise exponentially. We trust that you will enjoy discussing the latest scientific developments with your peers during these three days, and that you will find your stay as pleasant as possible.

WSEAS International Conferences-Cambridge, MA, USA, January 29-31, 2014 Dear Colleagues: On behalf of the conferences organizing committee it is our pleasure to welcome you to attend the World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society (WSEAS) organized International Conferences being held at Cambridge Massachusetts. Morgan State University,through the Center for Advanced Transportation and Infrastructure Engineering Research (www.eng.morgan.edu/~catier) is proud to be one of the scientific sponsors for the WSEAS conferences, whichhave a tradition of promoting and unifying sciences in various disciplines, and allowing exchange of scientific research ideas among researchers and collaborators across the globe. Morgan State University is designated as Maryland’s public urban university serving the global community. It is classified by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a Doctoral/Research Intensive University. In keeping up with this classification, the university remains to be a key player in promoting cutting edge research in the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Architecture, and Mathematics) and Business disciplines at the global front. We hope that you will find your stay in Cambridge enjoyable. Cambridge is a city in the Greater Boston area that was named in honor of the University of Cambridge in England, an important center of the Puritan theology embraced by the town's founders. Cambridge is also home to two of the world's most prominent universities, Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Planning and organizing conferences of this nature requires a team effort and therefore I must take the time to thank the WSEAS Teamwithout whom we could not have managed to organize these conferences. Please do not hesitate to contact me or any of the conference staff should you need any assistance throughout your stay at the Cambridge and in the Boston area. I invite you to spend some time to explore Cambridge, including the Harvard Yard and MIT's Great Lawn, the Mount Auburn Cemetery, the esplanade along the Charles River, the busy and historic public Cambridge Common Park adjacent to the Harvard campus, the Alewife Brook Reservation and the Fresh Pond located in the western part of the city. Sincerely,
