INES at two internacional conferences on Information Integration on the Web

INES researcher has two papers accepted for presentation in conferences about Information Integration.

The first one entitled ”A Context-based Schema Integration Process Applied to Healthcare Data Sources” will be presented in the 3rd International Workshop on Ambient Data Integration (ADI 2010) that will happen along with the OnTheMove Conferences in Crete, Greece, in October 25-28.

The second one, entitled ”PSemRef: Personalized Query Reformulation based on User Preferences”, will be at the 12th International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & Services (iiWAS2010) in Paris, France, in November, 8-10.

Both conferences and associated workshops have a very interesting program and it will be an opportunity to see the state of the art from different domains as Information Integration, Ontologies, Semantic Web, Cloud Computing, among others. Tutorials and important invited speakers in the area will be major moments in the evenements. Besides, being at both conferences will be an excellent opportunity to meet people, make new contacts and even stablish new collaborations.

- Prof. Ana Carolina Salgado, UFPE, is a researcher of the project “Models, Processes and Tools for the Development of Context-Sensitive Systems”.

Context group researchers will have a meeting at Recife

Members of the Project: “Models, Processes and Tools for Developing Context Sensitive Systems”  meet at UFPE-Recife to discuss developed and ongoing activities within the scope of the INES project.

The agenda includes two meetings and a master defense.

Dates: 03/09 and 06/09.

Place: Centro de Informática, UFPE, Recife.

UFPE and UFCG Researchers at CBSOFT 2010

Márcio Cornélio, Rohit Gheyi, and Tiago Massoni (INES researchers), will attend the 1st Brazilian Conference on Software: Theory and Practice (CBSoft), from September 27th through October 1st. In this occasion, they will present a short course entitled “Java Modeling Language - JML”. This short course is part of the project “Making Program Evolution Safer“. Other researcher, Henrique Rebêlo (UFPE), will also attend CBSoft.

Project hires new researcher

The project “Making Program Evolution Safer” hires one undergraduate researcher to work on algorithm techniques.

UFS is acquiring books

The project “Software Productivity Laboratory Network” is acquiring books to support the research activities at UFS. These books will help the students in research and development in the project activities concerning the development and use of processes and tools for testing web applications.
