The AMFUs prepare district-level agromet bulletins based on weather forecast and existing crop status information. The eAgromet is an IT-enabled agro-meteorological advisory system. The objective of eAgromet is to improve the efficiency of agromet advisory bulletin preparation and dissemination process by exploiting advances in both agriculture and information technologies. In this talk, I will discuss about the background, basic ideas, the components and functionality of the eAgromet prototype. Speaker :　Prof. Cyrus Shahabi (The University of Southern California ) Title: Geo-Immersion: A Data-Centric (Big-Data) Approach Towards Situational Awareness In this talk, I first introduce the Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC), a graduated NSF Engineering Research Center at USC in the area of multimedia. The current research focus of IMSC is on a new geo-socio-temporal computing paradigm, termed Geo-Immersion. Geo-Immersion enables humans to capture, model and integrate real-world data into a geo-realistic virtual replica of the world for situational awareness. It encompasses research in many interesting topics such as multimedia, crowdsourcing, privacy, trust, geospatial and temporal data management, etc. I will then present the IMSC’s three Geo-Immersive applications in Intelligent Transportation, Intelligent Surveillance and Intelligent Campus. I will use “Big Data” as the common theme across these applications and discuss the various Big Data challenges we are addressing under each application, including: 1) Big Data acquisition, storage, and access (TransDec), 2) Big Data analytics (iWatch) and 3) Big Data collection with geo-crowdsourcing (iCampus). -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 中野　美由紀東京大学　生産技術研究所　戦略情報融合国際研究センタ Miyuki NAKANO Institute of Industrial Science, Univ. of Tokyo 　　　　　　　　Center for Information Fusion miyuki(a)tkl.iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp

By computationally analyzing such network data we can study phenomena that were once essentially invisible to us: the social interactions and collective behavior of hundreds of millions of people. In this talk we discuss how computational perspectives and mathematical models can be developed to abstract online social phenomena like: How will a community or a social network evolve in the future? What are emerging ideas and trends in the network? How does information flow and mutate as it is passed from a node to node like an epidemic? -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 中野　美由紀東京大学　生産技術研究所　戦略情報融合国際研究センタ Miyuki NAKANO Institute of Industrial Science, Univ. of Tokyo 　　　　　　　　Center for Information Fusion miyuki(a)tkl.iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp

Apologies for crossposting ====================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing (TETC) Special Issue on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) IEEE Transactions on Emerging Topics in Computing (TETC) is seeking original manuscripts for Special Issue on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), scheduled to be published in the January - June 2013 issue. The coordination and tight link between computational, virtual and physical resources will drive the potential of having a pervasive effect in the citizens everyday life, satisfying various needs and also creating new opportunities for the introduction of services that will enhance the quality of life of the society as a whole. Research advances in cyber-physical systems promise to transform our world with systems that will far exceed those of today in terms of: effectiveness, adaptability, autonomicity, energy efficiency, precision, reliability, safety, usability, scalability, stability and user-centric applicability. Moreover, recently the Sensor Web concept came into foreground, aiming at combining distributed sensing with the ubiquitous connectivity and accessibility of the web, therefore facilitating the close interaction of digital world with physical world. Cyber-physical systems find direct applicability in a wide range of areas and disciplines, including for instance (but not limited to): a) Smart Grid technologies: that aim at facilitating a reliable and efficient delivery of electricity to consumers using digital communications and security technologies, and intelligent monitoring and control of the delivery network and electricity consumption b) Wireless sensing, monitoring and networking: to enable distributed monitoring systems of numerous smart sensors and actuators, mobile devices, RFIDs, (ground, aerial, aquatic) robots etc., which revolutionize a variety of application areas with unprecedented density, fidelity, and scalability of environment instrumentation; c) Vehicular cyber-physical and intelligent transportation systems: that integrate computing, communication, and storage capabilities with monitoring and control of vehicles in the physical world to deal with the grand challenges of safe, green, and efficient transportation; d) Smart Living technologies: smart city (e.g. increasing security, comfort and convenience, green energy), intelligent park and space, healthcare systems. Ambient intelligence, context-awareness, data mining, embedded system and software, evolutionary computation, modeling environments and human behavior, social networks, big data, security, privacy and trust, ubiquitous computing and other technologies and methodologies applied in CPS are also welcome. Towards merging the information-centric character and node-centric physical world connectivity, well-defined analytical models, methodologies and experimental validations are required of how to build such systems capable of coping with the entire chain of operations and orchestrating the various parts together in a flexible, efficient and economic way. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Architectural framework for distributed CPS - Resource Management in large scale CPS - Evaluations and field trials of CPS and solutions Security, privacy, scalability, and reliability issues - Design and cross-layer optimizations - Vehicular CPS and intelligent transportation systems - Scalable monitoring applications with sensors, actuators, smart phones, robots, and other wireless mobile devices - Smart Living and Smart grid technologies - Modeling and fault tolerance Submission Guideline Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently submitted for journal publication elsewhere.
