Abstract :
Welcome to the 42nd Computing in Cardiology Proceedings. This was the second time, after Lyon 2005, that the Computing in Cardiology community meet in France, a country with a long tradition of engineering applied to cardiology. The Board of Directors was delighted when Olivier Meste and his colleagues from University of Nice Sophia Antipolis volunteered to host this year´s meeting. They prepared an excellent meeting and social program, and a very high number of abstracts were submitted.
