We invite proposals for four-hour or full day tutorials on topics
relating to theoretical and applied AI. The aim is to offer
conference delegates both tutorials on up-to-date AI technologies,
and case study tutorials on the application of the AI technologies
to real-world problems.
A list of suggested topics is given below:
artificial life knowledge representation
automated deduction language technology

"ENTWICKLUNG DES GI-BUSINESS: SOFTWARE- UND SERVICEMARKT"
ZUM INHALT: Geographische Informationssysteme haben knapp 20 Jahre nach
ersten bescheidenen Marktauftritten einen beachtlichen Stellenwert in
unserer Wissensgesellschaft erreicht. Was angesichts des hohen
Prozentsatzes an raumbezogenen Informationen in der industrialisierten
Gesellschaft nicht weiter verwundert - trotzdem ging die Verbreitung
aufgrund hoher Kosten für Soft- und Hardware und der schwierigen
Bedienbarkeit nur langsam voran. SynerGIS (vormals Datamed) hat 1987 die
Generalvertretung des GIS-Weltmarktführers ESRI für Österreich und 1993
zusätzlich für die Slovakische Republik übernommen. In den 14 Jahren
unserer Tätigkeit im GI-Business haben wir knapp 10.000 ESRI Lizenzen in
Österreich geliefert, die entsprechenden Schulungen durchgeführt und
unterstützen im Rahmen von Wartungsverträgen unsere Kunden bei ihren
vielfältigen Aufgaben. Durch die rasante Nutzung des Intra- und Internets
ist jedoch die konventionelle Angabe von Lizenzzahlen für die tatsächliche
Verbreitung nur mehr bedingt aussagekräftig.
Erste und auch heute noch bedeutendste Nutzer von GIS-Systemen sind Bund,
Länder und Gemeinden. So nutzen heute etwa 80% aller Bundesdienststellen,
alle neun Landesregierungen und zwei von drei Gemeinden ESRI Lösungen zur
effizienten und kompetenten Bewältigung ihrer vielfältigen Aufgaben. Sie
produzieren dabei eine Vielzahl von Daten, die der Gesellschaft von
wirtschaftlichen Nutzen sind wie Geomarketing, Routenplanung etc.
ZUM VORTRAGENDEN: Dr. Egon Füsselberger promovierte 1971 in Chemie an der
KFU Graz. Nach einem Auslandsaufenthalt 1972/73 war er ab 1973 in
Geschäftsführerfunktionen in Wien tätig, seit 1986 bei Datamed - heute
SynerGIS, wo er seit 1987 für den Aufbau des GIS-Bereiches verantwortlich
zeichnete. Mit Ende 2000 zog sich Dr. Füsselberger aus der Geschäftsführung
zurück. Seither ist er als Gesellschafter der SynerGIS für die
Langfriststrategie zuständig.
=======================================================================
18.00 - 18.45:
THEODOR DREXLER (Tele Atlas GmbH, Wien):
"NAVIGATION IM 21. JAHRHUNDERT: DATEN UND LöSUNGEN"
ZUM INHALT: Die Palette der Einsatzmöglichkeiten raumbezogener
Informationen im modernen Wirtschaftsleben wächst nahezu jeden Tag. In
diesem Zukunftsmarkt der digitalen Kartographie ist Tele Atlas - ein
schnell wachsendes Unternehmen mit mehr als 1.600 Mitarbeiter/innen -
Weltmarktführer. Offene Systemstrukturen und höchste Genauigkeit der Daten
sind die Basis von B2B und Consumer Anwendungen - fast jeder Sektor unserer
modernen Geschäftswelt nutzt kartenbasierte Informationen. Doch aus welchen
Quellen stammen die Basisdaten, welche Funktionen und Attribute, Formate
und Datenmodelle bieten die heute am Markt befindlichen Produkte und
Lösungen? Welche Stellung kommt dem Geo-Content Provider in der
Wertschöpfungskette von der Datenquelle bis zum Endbenutzer zu?
Während die Karten immer genauer werden und immer mehr Gebiete und Details
erfassen, wächst auch die Anzahl der Bereiche, in denen geographische Daten
eine entscheidende Rolle spielen: Transport und Verkehr (Routen-, Touren-,
Einsatzplanung sowie Flottenmanagement u. Verkehrsplanung), Geomarketing
(Mikrogeographisches Marketing, Standortplanung/-analyse,
Verkaufsunterstützung), CD-ROM Produkte für den PC (Routenplanung für
Touristen und Geschäftsreisende, Branchenverzeichnisse), Online- und
Internet-Kartographie, Verkehrstelematik, Fahrzeugnavigation, neue
Technologien (Mobile Computing mit Personal Digital Assistants, W@P), GIS
und Verlagskartographie.
ZUM VORTRAGENDEN: Theodor Drexler ist seit Anfang 2001 Ansprechpartner für
den Bereich Geographische Informationssysteme bei Tele Atlas Wien. Herrn
Drexler, der über langjährige Erfahrung im internationalen Customer Support
verfügt, faszinieren an seiner jetzigen beruflichen Tätigkeit der Kontakt
mit Menschen und die Tatsache, die Entwicklung der vielfältigen
Anwendungen, die durch Tele Atlas-Daten ermöglicht werden, hautnah mit
verfolgen zu können.

Subject: CFP: Information Technology in Childhood Education Annual
Date: Thu, 4 Oct 2001 10:27:17 -0400
From: AACE Announcements <announce(a)MINDSPRING.COM>
To: EDUCTECH(a)LISTSERV.UH.EDU
_________________________________________________
Information Technology in Childhood Education Annual 2002
CALL FOR PAPERS
www.aace.org/pubs/child
Submission Deadline: November 16, 2001
A publication of
AACE--Assn. for the Advancement of Computing in Education
www.aace.org
__________________________________________________
The Association for the Advancement of Computers in Education (AACE)
announces the next annual edition of the peer-reviewed publication,
Information Technology in Childhood Education (ITCE).
This refereed, academic annual book (printed in paper form) focuses on the
theoretical perspectives/issues,
research, practical applications, and innovative uses of information
technology in regular and special education from pre-K through grade six,
or ages 3 to 12. This edition of the Annual will be published and
internationally distributed in February.
The definition of technology for this publication includes:
* computers
* assistive devices
* various forms of software (i.e., drill, discovery, edutainment, etc.)
* educational hand held electronic devices, smart toys
* video games
* television
* programming languages such as Logo
MAJOR TOPICS:
Though authors are not limited to these topics, the following suggested
areas are meant to stimulate article ideas as these topics relate to the
- theory,
- issues,
- research, and
- practical/innovative applications of information technology in
childhood education.
* Classroom Environments
* Internet/Online Learning
* Home/School Connection
* Software Evaluation
* Special Needs
* Teacher Education
* Use of Multimedia Software with and by Children
* Robotics
Classroom Environments:
How should the classrooms of today and the near future differ from the
recent past? What role should technology play in those classrooms and what
would be the benefits to young children? How dependent should we become on
technology in the education of children?
Internet/Online Learning:
What role should the Internet and the World Wide Web play in the education
of children of all ages? Are there strong theoretical arguments for not
using web technology in the education of children? If so, what specific
threats might the Internet and World Wide Web pose to the development of
young children if not used appropriately? What benefits can be derived from
the WWW not available to the traditional classroom?
Home/School Connection:
What opportunities should the associated technological advances offer the
home/school connection? Will parents play a more central role in the
education of their children? Should primary education move towards a home
centered approach as Internet and Web technologies make home learning a
viable option?
Software Evaluation:
Are current methods of software evaluation appropriate for the quickly
changing and dynamic nature of educational and edutainment software? What
evaluation practices should we retain and which need to be developed? Is
there a more expedient way to evaluate software to determine its
appropriateness for children of all ages? What is the best way to make this
information available to parents and teachers?
Special Needs:
How should we approach the childhood education using technology with
special needs children in mind? What technological advances can we expect
or should we develop to normalize their educational experiences and smooth
our mainstreaming efforts? How will new technologies and software effect
the education of special needs teachers? What non-traditional uses of
technology and software would benefit special needs children? What
technologies do we need to develop?
Teacher Education:
What implications does the ever increasing power of computing and changes
in software development have for teacher education? How can teachers ever
hope to keep up with technological change in order to be able to use it
masterfully in their classrooms? At what point to teachers become
responsible for their own continued technological education? What role
should school technological specialists play that they are not playing now?
Is there a difference between knowing technology and knowing what
technology is good for children?
