This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Augmented and Virtual Reality, AVR 2015, held in Lecce, Italy, in September 2015. The 32 papers and 8 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The SALENTO AVR 2015 conference brings together a community of researchers from academia and industry, computer scientists, engineers, and physicians in order to share points of views, knowledge, experiences, and scientific and technical results related to state-of-the-art solutions and technologies on virtual and augmented reality applications for medicine, cultural heritage, education, industrial sectors, as well as the demonstration of advanced products and technologies.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International ICST Conference on Personal Satellite Services, PSATS 2010, held in Rome, Italy, Februray 2010. The conference included a keynote speech, 4 regular technical tracks and 4 special sessions consisting of 33 high-quality scientific papers. These cover various topics such as Satellite Communications: Coding and Modulations, Multimedia Integration, Satellite Network: Quality of Service and Architectures and Applications and Services, as well as Delay-Tolerant Networks, Quantum Satellite Communications, Access Quality Processing and Applications of Satellite Imagery.
As future generation information technology (FGIT) becomes specialized and fr- mented, it is easy to lose sight that many topics in FGIT have common threads and, because of this, advances in one discipline may be transmitted to others. Presentation of recent results obtained in different disciplines encourages this interchange for the advancement of FGIT as a whole. Of particular interest are hybrid solutions that c- bine ideas taken from multiple disciplines in order to achieve something more signi- cant than the sum of the individual parts. Through such hybrid philosophy, a new principle can be discovered, which has the propensity to propagate throughout mul- faceted disciplines. FGIT 2009...
The intricate fields of information systems and information technology consist of innumerable interrelated facets from hardware to software and creators to end users. All systems inevitably encounter errors or problems, and as new solutions are found and created in today's complex world of technology, it is essential to look at systems as complete entities when searching for solutions and answers.Systems Approach Applications for Developments in Information Technology addresses the essential need to look at systems as a complete unit through using systems approach in the field of IT. This complete reference is designed for all information technology professionals to better understand their current jobs and future goals through the pivotal idea of systems approach as applied in software engineering, systems engineering, and complex systems.
