2nd Int'l Workshop on Multimedia-Aware Networking (WoMAN)

IEEE TEMU 2012: Int'l Conference on Telecommunications & Multimedia

Heraklion, Crete, Greece, July 30 - August 1, 2012

http://www.ieee-temu.org/


Latest advances in multimedia content encoding and representation, including HDTV, 3DTV, multi-view video and associated added-value interactive services, are offering to the end user a truly rich multimedia experience. At the same time advances in communications systems and network technologies give the ability to apply in-network processing techniques in order to take advantage of the available user and media contextual information for efficient, flexible and auto-configurable media transmission. On the other hand network-aware applications and cross-layer mechanisms are being developed in order to take advantage of network information in order to adapt the media to the current network conditions, terminal capabilities, and user preferences. This workshop solicits novel contributions and breaking results on all aspects of multimedia-aware networking. In particular, workshop papers should describe algorithms, issues and experiences related to content-aware networking and network-aware applications, future (media) Internet architectures, User-Generated Content and High-popularity VoD - the CfP in PDF format is here.



We are particularly interested (but not limited to) in areas such as:

Content Aware Networking and Network Aware Applications

Content creation: coding (e.g., 2D/3D, SVC, HEVC), preparation, packaging

Content delivery: transport, streaming, live, on-demand, real-time, download

Content adaptation: server, in-network, client

Content-aware and media-aware forwarding and routing

Content consumption: widget

No Oitavo Congresso de Estudos Africanos - CIEA8 pretendemos reflectir sobre as profundas transformações (políticas, sociais, económicas e culturais), que estão a ocorrer no continente africano, e sobre a reconfiguração da relação deste com o resto do mundo.

Tal como nas edições anteriores, este Congresso é uma oportunidade para criar pontes de encontro e diálogo, entre diferentes correntes dos cada vez mais ricos e diversos estudos africanos, e para favorecer as relações e vínculos entre grupos e centros de investigação que, a partir da Península Ibérica e África, coincidem no desejo de combaterem leituras pessimistas sobre o continente africano.

Assim, “sob a árvore da palavra” investigadores e investigadoras da Europa e África, teremos um espaço para partilhar, durante três dias, a nossa crescente diversidade teórica, analítica, epistemológica e metodológica. Este Congresso é uma oportunidade para aprofundar a compreensão da complexa e múltipla realidade africana, da natureza das suas transformações e resistências, dos processos interessantes de interconexões locais, nacionais, regionais e globais, bem como dos diversos relatos do passado e visões de futuro que estão a emergir nas suas sociedades.

Velo-city Global 2012: the perfect time and place. A paradigm shift in urban thinking, and, perhaps more specifically, transportation planning and infrastructure is happening around the world. Europe has already begun to adapt. North America has been a little slower in coming around, but in certain cities, is making great strides. Meanwhile, the rest of the world: Asia, Australia and New Zealand, South America, and Africa are watching, learning, and implementing best practices – and in some cases, initiating them.

6th Open House – International Feast of Architecture at the Catholic University of Viseu
Organization: Architecture Department at the Catholic University of Viseu (Portugal)

4 – 6 June 2012

Binaural / Nodar is currently preparing a strategic partnership with the department of architecture at the Catholic University of Viseu, which will be developed in two complementary fields:

a) Co-organization of a social project of rehabilitation of the architectural heritage of the traditional villages, entitled “Terra Amada” (“Beloved Land”), which will have the involvement of local communities, teachers and students of architecture, of the Viseu diocesys, sponsor materials construction, etc..

b) Co-organization of a workshop that will mark the opening of the academic year 2012-2013. This workshop, to be attended by all students of the architecture course, will consist in a two-day fieldwork program for the students to later present models, posters and slide presentations with new ideas for both existing and new buildings in the rural villages of Gralheira Mountain Range.

In this regard, and in the context of the 6th Open House, Binaural / Nodar will present on June 5 at 10:30 a multimedia lecture on its activities and will participate in the presentation of the two mentioned initiatives, along with the director and vice-director of the architecture department; Architects Antonio Carvalho and Fernando Goncalves. Binaural / Nodar will be represented by Luís Costa, president and Maria Carlos Valverde, coordinator of the actions related to architecture.

Motto of the European Conference on Rare Diseases & Orphan Products.
The European Conference on Rare Diseases & Orphan Products is the unique platform/forum across all rare diseases, across all European countries, bringing together all stakeholders - academics, health care professionals, industry, policy makers, patients’ representatives.
It is a biennial event, providing the state-of-the-art of the rare disease environment, monitoring and benchmarking initiatives.
It covers research, development of new treatments, health care, social care, information, public health and support at European, national and regional levels.
It is synergistic with national and regional conferences, enhancing efforts of all stakeholders. There is no competition with them, but efforts are complementary, fully respecting initiatives of all.
The objectives of the European Conference on Rare Diseases & Orphan Products are:

• To disseminate the most up-to-date health information related to the rare disease environment to all relevant stakeholders (patients and patients’ representatives, academics, health care professionals, industry and policy makers);
• To demonstrate the importance of EU actions in the field of rare diseases and review progress made to date;
• To elaborate strategies and mechanisms for developing further exchange of information between stakeholders: people living with rare diseases, volunteers, health professionals, policy makers, researchers and industry at national and EU levels;
• To exchange knowledge and best practices on all relevant health issues related to the rare disease environment;
• To sustain efforts for rare disease policies at both the European and the national level;
• To stimulate dialogue on policies for rare diseases in some of the Member States having recently joined the EU;
• To present specific, achievable objectives at both European and national levels in order to reduce health inequalities for rare disease patients.
