- Proceedings of Bioinformatics: Knowledge Discovery in Biology Workshop (BKDB 2005)Publication . Silva, Mario J; Fernandes, Pedro; Couto, Francisco M.Bioinformatics aims at understanding living systems using biological information. We see it as a subset of Computational Biology that deals specifically with the biological problems where knowledge can be gained from the information that we can extract from Biology. These problems arise at all levels and scales of observation, from molecules to systems. BKDB2005 is a forum for presentation and discussion of current work and new advances in Bioinformatics. This workshop explored directions of future research and facilitated collaboration between researchers, developers, practitioners and students. This volume contains the papers presented at the BKDB2005 workshop held at the Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa on June 17, 2005. After a careful revision of the 20 paper submissions, the program committee has selected 10 papers for oral presentation and 5 others for a joint presentation in a poster session. Two invited presentations were given by Roderic Guigó and Marie-France Sagot. The organizers hope that this is only the first of a series of regular events. Knowledge discovery using Bioinformatics is unstoppable!
- Proceedings of the 4th MiNEMA workshop in SintraPublication . Koldehofe, BorisIn the continuation of the success of the MiNEMA workshop series, Universidade de Lisboa hosted the 4th MiNEMA Workshop in Sintra, in July 2-3, 2006. The MiNEMA programme is an European Science Foundation (ESF) Scientific Programme aiming to bring together European groups from different communities working on middleware for mobile environment. The programme intends to foster the definition and implementation of widely recognised middleware abstractions for new and emerging mobile applications.
- Tagging and Shallow Processing of Portuguese: Workshop Notes of TASHA'2003Publication . Branco, António Horta; Mendes, Amália; Ribeiro, RicardoRecent advances on tagging and other shallow processing tools have confirmed the key importance of these applications to enable subsequent stages of efficient deep linguistic processing, and to improve the quality of information retrieval services and support the semantic web. These tools include tokenizers, stemmers, MWU detectors, POS taggers, named entity recognizers, NP chunkers, WSD tools, PP attachment resolvers, terminology extractors, etc. Their development involve a wide variety of problems and resources, ranging from the collection of stop lists to the integration of these tools into broader systems and applications, and including a.o. methodologies for accurate hand tagging, linguistic resources for training and evaluation, learning algorithms and their eventual tuning to Portuguese, finite-state solutions, evaluation metrics and results, selected linguistic generalizations and specifications, etc. The Workshop on Tagging and Shallow Processing of Portuguese (TASHA'2003) took place at the University of Lisbon, October 3, 2003. Its goal was to provide a forum to discuss experiences and exchange results between researchers working in this area, and to review the current state of the art in this diverse field in what concerns the Portuguese language. The present collection of notes includes the abstracts of papers selected to be presented at the workshop. These abstracts are extended versions of the anonymous abstracts originally submitted and take into account the remarks offered by the reviewers, to the extent that this was possible by the space constraints of the present publication
- Proceedings of the First Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency and Communication-cEntric SoftwarePublication . Vasconcelos, Vasco T.; Yoshida, NobukoThis documents contains the proceedings of PLACES'08, the 1st Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency and Communication- cEntric Software, held in Oslo, Norway, on June 7, 2008, co-located with the DisCoTec federated conferences. PLACES aims to offer a forum where researchers from different Þelds ex- change new ideas on one of the central challenges in programming in near future, the development of programming methodologies and infrastructures where con- currency and distribution are a norm rather than a marginal concern. The Program Committee, after a careful and thorough reviewing process, se- lected for inclusion in the programme 10 papers out of 14 submissions. Each submission was evaluated by at least two referees, and the accepted papers were selected during one week electronic discussions. The volume opens with the abstracts for the invited contributions by Jan Vitek (Purdue University) and and Alan Mycroft (University of Cambridge), and con- tinues with the ten technical papers. Places'08 was made possible by the contribution and dedication of many peo- ple. First of all, we would like to thank all the authors who submitted papers for consideration. Secondly we would like to thank our invited and tutorial speakers. We would also like to thank the members of the Program Committee for their care- ful reviews, and the balanced discussions during the selection process. Dimitris Mostrous helped to set up a web page for the PC discussion. Finally, we acknowl- edge the Discotec general chairs, Frank Eliassen and Einar Broch Johnsen, and the Workshop chair Amy L. Murphy
- HPSG 2005 - The 12th International Conference on Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar: Conference NotesPublication . Branco, António Horta; Costa, Francisco; Sailer, ManfredThis technical report collects the extended abstracts selected for presentation at HPSG 2005 - The 12th International Conference on Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (University of Lisbon, August 23-24, 2005 - http://hpsg2005.di.fc.ul.pt/) by the corresponding program committee
- DISC 2001 Brief AnnouncementsPublication . Welch, J.DISC, the International Symposium on DIStributed Computing, is an annual forum for research presentations on all facets of distributed computing. In addition to regular papers, DISC also solicits Brief Announcements (BAs). It is hoped that researchers will use the BA track to quickly draw the attention of the community to their experiences, insights and results from ongoing distributed computing projects. For DISC 2001, which was held on Oct 3--5, 2001, in Lisbon, Portugal, the program committee selected 23 regular papers out of 70 papers submitted, and five BAs were selected for presentation. The 23 regular papers appear in the DISC 2001 proceedings, published by Springer-Verlag, as Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Volume 2180. In addition to presentation of research papers, DISC 2001 hosted two invited lectures, by Gerard LeLann (INRIA, France) and David Peleg (Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel)
- Lisbon Binding Workshop - Workshop on Binding Theory and Invariants in Anaphoric Relations (hosted by HPSG'2005): Workshop NotesPublication . Branco, António Horta; Costa, Francisco; Sailer, ManfredThis technical report collects the extended abstracts selected for the Workshop on Binding Theory and Invariants in Anaphoric Relations, hosted by the HPSG'2005 Conference (University of Lisbon, August 22, 2005 - http://bindingwksp.di.fc.ul.pt/) by the corresponding program committee
- Proceedings of the First Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion-Tolerant SystemsPublication . Correia, Miguel; Neves, Nuno FerreiraThe First Workshop on Recent Advances on Intrusion-Tolerant Systems aimed to bring together researchers in the related areas of Intrusion Tolerance, Distributed Trust, Survivability, Byzantine Fault Tolerance, and Resilience. The workshop was specially interested in ``intrusion-tolerant systems': how to build them? How to evaluate and test their dependability and security? What systems need to be intrusion-tolerant? The proceedings contain 7 papers, and the abstract of the keynote speech by Professor William H. Sanders, from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
