We are living in a world full of innovations for the elderly and people with s- cial needs to use smart assistive technologies and smart homes to more easily perform activities of daily living, continue social participation, engage in ent- tainment and leisure activities, and to enjoy living independently. These in- vations are inspired by new technologies leveraging all aspects of ambient and pervasive intelligence with related theories, technologies, methods, applications, and services on ubiquitous, pervasive, AmI, universal, mobile, embedded, we- able, augmented, invisible, hidden, context-aware, calm, amorphous, sentient, proactive, post PC, everyday, autonomic computing from engineering, business and organizationalperspectives. In the ?eld of smart homes and health telem- ics, signi?cant research is underway to enable ageing and disabled people to use smart assistive technologies and smart homes to foster independent living and to o?er them an enhanced quality of life. A smart home is a vision of the future where computers and computing - vices will be available naturally and unobtrusively anywhere, anytime, and by di?erent means in our daily living, working, learning, business, and infota- ment environments. Such a visionopens tremendous opportunities for numerous novel services/applications that are more immersive, more intelligent, and more interactive in both real and cyber spaces.

ThisLectureNotesinComputerScience(LNCS)volumecontainsthepapers p- sentedatthe ThirdInternationalWorkshoponComputationalForensics(IWCF 2009), held August 13-14, 2009 at The Netherlands Forensic Institute in The Hague, The Netherlands. Computational forensics is a research domain focusing on the investigation of forensic problems using computational methods. Its primary goal is the d- covery and advancement of forensic knowledge involving modeling, computer simulation, and computer-based analysis and recognition in studying and so- ing forensic problems. The Computational Forensics Workshop series is intended as a forum for researchers and practicioners in all areas of computational and forensic s- ences. This forum discusses current challenges in computer-assisted forensics and presents recent progress and advances. IWCF addressesa broadspectrum of forensicdisciplines fromcriminal inv- tigation. The NAS report "Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward, " published in 2009, already concluded that: "With the exc- tion of nuclear DNA analysis, no forensic method has been rigorously shown to havethecapacitytoconsistentlyandwithahighdegreeofcertaintydemons trate aconnectionbetweenevidenceandspeci?cindividualorsource."Computat ional methods can assist with statistical methods using, for example, likelihood ratios to strengthen the di?erent ?elds of forensic science. The organization of such an event is not possible without the e?ort and the enthousiasm of everyone involved.
