BIRD - 1st International Conference on Bioinformatics Research a

The primary focus of BIRD '07 is to provide researchers and users in the field of bioinformatics a forum in which to interact about new research directions, developments, and software/web services.
It encompasses the methods of solving biological, medical, or chemical problems by computer science, machine learning, or information processing tools.
The conceptual level of the methods ranges from theoretical approaches through the design of algorithms, models, and information processing systems to the development of software packages and web services.

Worst Case Execution Time Analysis

8th  International Workshop on Worst-Case Execution Time Analysis (WCET 2008)
The goal of the workshop is to bring together people from academia, tool vendors and users in industry that are interested in all aspects of timing analysis for real-time systems. The workshop fosters a highly interactive format with ample time for in-depth discussions. It provides a relaxed forum to present and discuss new ideas, new research directions, and to review current trends in this area. The presentations will be kept short to leave plenty of time for interaction of attendees.
Besides the technical papers combined with inspiring discussions, WCET 2008 features an invited talk and a report of theWCET Tool Challenge 2008. The papers were selected based on peer reviews by program committee members and external reviewers, all experts in the field.

Wikis im Social Web

Durch die große Popularität des bekanntesten Wikis, der Wikipedia, haben heute schon viele eine ungefähre Vorstellung von Wikis. Wikis können jedoch in einem viel breiteren Bereich angewendet werden. Diesem Bereich haben sich auch die von der Österreichischen Computer Gesellschaft (OCG) organisierten Veranstaltungen Wikiposium 2005 und Wikiposium 2006 (http://wikiposium.ocg.at) verschrieben, bei denen Wikis im Kontext ihrer Anwendungen aus den verschiedensten Blickwinkeln beleuchtet wurden. Für den vorliegenden Band wurden siebzehn Beiträge zusammengefasst.

Schwerpunktthemen bilden – neben der multiperspektivischen Beschreibung des Phänomens Wiki – die Beschäftigung mit Online-Communities,  Anwendungen im Bereich der Dokumentation und des Wissensmanagements, im Archiv- und Museumsbereich, sowie im Zusammenhang mit eLearning-Anwendungen.

KnowRight2008

Knowledge Rights - Legal, Societal and Related Technological Aspects

This book gives an excellent overview on the current crisis of copyright in the emerging knowledge society. On the one hand, rights of copyright holders have been strengthened on demands of copyright industries. On the other hand, growing unease with copyright has lead to a countermovement providing alternative models like Creative Commons licenses. Human rights are endangered by data retention and on-line searching, restricting privacy and opening new enforcement options for knowledge business.

Proper balancing of these interests requires intensive discussion. KnowRight08 constitutes a creative dialogue between academics, and representatives of business and the civil society.

This volume helps to participate successfully in the debate about the future options concerning the creation, distribution and use of knowledge in the information society.

EDem2008

E-Democracy Conference

There are a number of E-Democracy applications, ranging from providing information to discussion, deliberation, decision-making and voting, thus encompassing the entire democratic process. The technical devices have become a means to an end, and there are other questions that now need to be raised and answered:

To what extent can E-Democracy support and enrich our democracy?

What and where are the interfaces, what methods can be used to integrate E-participation in present politics public administration processes?

How can we ensure that the greatest number of people are reached and are able to use the means of participation?

How can the modern media support political education?

How can the Internet increase participation in political discussion?

What are the limitations and the risks of E-Democracy?

The EDem2008 conference presents the opportunity to look into these questions and discuss the answers.

Challenges in the Biosciences:Image Analysis and Pattern Recogni

The 32nd annual workshop of the Austrian Association for Pattern Recognition (AAPR/OAGM) was held at the Bildungszentrum St. Magdalena - “over the rooftops of Linz”, from May 26th to 27th 2008.

The workshop provides a platform for bringing together researchers in the fields of image analysis, image processing, and pattern recognition to discuss relevant and important topics in the computer-vision discipline. It is organized in workshop form, and presents the latest work of Austrian (Central European) and international institutes in the domain of computer vision and pattern recognition. Special attention was paid to the theme “Challenges in the Biosciences: Image Analysis and Pattern Recognition Aspects”, in both invited presentations and submitted work. As result of a careful reviewing process, 19 out of 27 submitted papers from eight different countries were selected for publication in these proceedings.
