This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Conference on Hybrid Information Technology, ICHIT 2006, held in Jeju Island, Korea, in November 2006.

The papers are organized in topical sections on data analysis, modeling, and learning; imaging, speech, and complex data; applications of artificial intelligence; hybrid, smart, and ubiquitous systems; hardware and software engineering; as well as networking and telecommunications.
