Complexity, Networks and Internet Regulation
Seminar of the ANR project on distributed architectures
Why is the Internet so difficult to regulate? In large part, its complexity and size have proved challenging, but there seems to be a lot of ignorance about how it really works. Large interconnected systems such as the Internet display a number of inherent architectural characteristics deeming them well-suited to the study of complex dynamic networks. The starting point of this talk is that it is perfectly possible to use various network science-based tools to explore the contentious issue of Internet regulation. Specifically, the Internet as a dynamic distributed system requires new challenges that rely on that same distributed nature in order to tackle them. -

Tracking Innovation through Grey Literature
Fourteenth International Conference on Grey Literature
Innovation is a process manifested in and through grey literature. Both have their origins in knowledge generation and both demonstrate value for government, academics, business and industry through their uses and applications. In a way, innovation and grey literature are two sides of the same coinage. Innovation is the catalyst for positive change and grey literature is the measure of benchmarks in the further process of research and development. -

Web and Philosophy: why and what for?
PhiloWeb 2012
The advent of the Web is one of the defining technological events of the twentieth-first century, yet its impact on the fundamental questions of philosophy has not yet been widely explored, much less systematized. We hope to provoke the properly philosophical question of whether there is a consistent new branch or practice of philosophy that can weave these changes to technology and society into a coherent whole and have a real social impact. -
"As pessoas querem expressar-se, querem ser ouvidas, querem participar na criação da sua envolvente." Desde o início da humanidade temos desenvolvido tecnologias criativas, ferramentas que suportam a nossa expressão, como as tintas, as ferramentas de esculpir, objetos sonoros. As tecnologias criativas foram sempre a base da expressividade humana; para suportar a realização pessoal; para aumentar a autoestima; para aumentar os laços comunitários; para criar sociedades melhores. Quanto mais nos expressamos, mais nos sentimos vivos.

From research to practice: Results and open challenges
COOP 2012. Tenth International Conference on Design of Cooperative Systems
COOP 2012 will be the tenth COOP conference and will take place in Marseille, France. Twenty years on from the first conference in 1992 we are asking practitioners and researchers to reflect on what have been the successes and the failures, and what are the remaining challenges in our relevant domains. The conference aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners who contribute to the analysis and design of cooperative systems and their integration in organizational unity, public and other settings, and their implications for policy and decision-making. The COOP conferences suggest that cooperative systems design requires a deep understanding of collective activities, involving both artifacts and social practices. Contributions are solicited from a wide range of domains contributing to the fields of cooperative systems design and evaluation: CSCW, HCI, Information Systems, Knowledge Engineering, Multi-agent systems, organizational and management sciences, sociology, psychology, anthropology, ergonomics, linguistics, etc. -

From Social Networking to Wealth Creation
Social networking is the way the grey literature community remains connected in the 21st century. It encompasses a range of social media and communication tools that enable subject based communities to create, review, process, publish, and make grey literature openly accessible to public domain. Social networking is not new to grey literature, in fact it is inherent to this field of information. What’s new however are the technologies available to global grey literature communities in developing, monitoring, and sustaining valued information resources and services. In this context, social networking becomes a mechanism both used and applied by grey literature communities in the processes of knowledge generation and ensuing wealth creation. -
