================= CALL FOR PAPERS
Aims and Scope
-----------------------
New scientific and technical improvements impact very deeply health information systems. On one side progresss on wireless networks, sensors (for people and their environnement) and mobile devices facilitate ambient information systems, on the other, improvement in distributed data management, adaptive interfaces, collaborative tools and methods, semantic models (ontologies) promote better support for personal health records and medical knowledge and more generally data sharing. All these together make Health Ambient Information Systems possible and place them as an important and challenginge element for our society. The main reasons is that such systems:
- allow to decrease or restrain health costs by reducing physician acts
- provide a tool-based collaboration between health professionnals
- make feel citizens secure and more responsible of their own medical environment.
Both, researchers and industrials work hard to face scientific, economic and strategic issues concerning patients, elderly or disabled-friendly. Health ambient information systems is a cross cutting area as it cross, among other, information systems, databases, sensor networks, ubiquitous computing and health related areas. The main objective of this workshop is to gather researchers and industrials of such areas together to elaborate a state-of-the art view on e-health solutions, to foster collaborations among the participants (industrial and research teams) and to trigger discussions on open topics and research challenges.
Workshop Topics
------------------------
The scope of this workshop includes, but is not limited to the following topics:
- sensor-based environment for home-surveillance
- methods for virtual medical organizations
- data management in pervasive context
- health networks applications
- mobile solutions for sharing information
- multimodal and collaborative interactions
- interfaces for mobile devices
- e-health applications for prescription
- chronic diseases following
- workflow and collaborative tools
- ethical aspects in e-health application
- security aspects and access control on medical data

In the context of the Cita 2011, we are organizing an
Iberoamerican Meeting on Ontological Research
This event is to be organized in the context of the International Outreach program of the International Association for Ontologies and Applications (IAOA
).
The idea of the event is to promote a scientific gathering for the different groups doing research related to Ontological Engineering and Applications of Ontology in Iberoamerica.This initiative, in turn, serves the short term goal of increasing the community self-awareness as well as providing a forum for exploring collaboration opportunities.
Moreover, it serves the long term goal of fomenting the creation of a de facto Iberoamerican Community on the topic with its own scientific forums and agenda.
Instead of organizing a regular workshop with the submission of regular scientific papers, we aim with this opportunity to stimulate the submission of position papers that describe the research program of the several iberoamerican groups in the aforementioned areas.
These research papers shall be published in Workshop proceedings via the indexed CEUR system and we envisage the possibility of writing a post-workshop collective journal paper detailing a roadmap with the state of the iberoamerican ontology community at hand.
The CITA conference will take place between 16 and 18 May and the workshop will be held in one of the days of that conference (to be defined).
If you are interested in participating in such an event, please send an intention to submit before March, 7th.
The deadline for submitting the position papers themselves is March, 31st.
The intention to submit should contain only the name of the research group, the group´s complete affiliation, and a list of the research topics pursued by the group in the aforementioned areas.
The group´s research statement (position paper) should have no more than 6 pages (LNCS format) and should contain the following information:
(a) Research Statement (the group’s view and focus on the general area of ontologies);
(b) Main areas of research;
(c) History of the Group and Members.
Both papers should be submitted directly to gguizzardi@inf.ufes.br and can be written in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
