Smart Info-Media Systems Technical Group of IEICE conducted the 2007 International Workshop on Smart Info-Media Systems in Bangkok (SISB 2007) in order to enhance research activity on smart multimedia communication fields in Asian countries. About 60 people attended the workshop and 33 contributions, two-invited talks were presented. The main objective of this Special Section is to review and promote recent progress in the smart multimedia communication fields. The special section has solicited paper submissions particularly from, but not restricted to, researchers who presented their original works in SISB 2007. In response to the call for papers, 39 manuscripts were submitted, including 16 manuscripts from attendees of SISB 2007. Twelve papers and one letter were accepted for publication in the Special Section through the regular reviewing process. As the Guest Editors of this special section, I would like to thank all the authors for contributing their manuscripts, and reviewers and Associate Editors their kind cooperation. Finally, I would like to express our sincere thanks to Professor Tomoaki Kimura for his excellent secretarial work.
